Both the Council Directive 92\/43\/EEC (May 21, 1992) on the protection of natural habitats, wild fauna and flora (Habitats Directive) and the Water Framework Directive 2000\/60\/EC of the European Parliament and the Council (Water Framework Directive) aim to ensure healthy water ecosystems while ensuring a balance between sustainable use of water resources and nature protection. In order to plan freshwater management more rationally, a new, unified framework for assessing the ecological quality of waters and the quality of habitats is needed. Such an approach will initially be developed for the sub-catchment of the Salacas River, so that later it will be applied to all river basin areas in Latvia and possibly elsewhere in the European Union.<\/div>\n<div>\n\t&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>\n\t<strong>The aim of the project is to promote the achievement of a good water condition in the rivers of the Salaca sub-catchment, as determined by the Habitats Directive, the Water Framework Directive and the objectives of the EU Biodiversity Strategy.<\/strong><\/div>\n<div>\n\t&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>\n\tSeveral activities will be carried out in the project to achieve the above-mentioned project goal.
