According to the EU Directive 2000/60/EC (Water Framework Directive, hereinafter called: WFD), several steps have to be worked out on the way towards the good water status. For this goal, some of the main elements of the river basin management plans are the programme of measures. The programme of measures has to include basic and supplementary measures. In addition, it has to check the implementation of European Directives into the national law and has to estimate the effects of these rules on the quality of the water bodies. If these regulations are not sufficient to reach the good status of water, supplementary measures have to be applied. The paper gives an overview of how basic and supplementary measures for wastewater treatment were considered in the Drava River Basin. The main stress is given to the implementation of the EU Directive 91/271/EEC (the Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive, hereinafter called: UWWTD), as part of the basic measures as defined in Annex VI of WFD and its results in the Drava River Basin.

The paper provides brief overview of the river basin district management plans in the Baltic region within the WATERPRAXIS project, linked to the EU Water Framework Directive. Latvian experience in completion of the river basin district management plans is emphasized comparing to other regional cooperation partners. Article is based on the report documents, analysis of the available data and review of the development projects subject to implementation. To some extent also potential issues for discussion are outlined. Certain Baltic countries have had difficulties complying with the EU Water Framework Directive,and there are some potential areas of contention, which should be taken into account in further activities. In course of the administrative and territorial reform and compliance with other EU directives (e.g. in the renewable energy sector) modifications can be made to the status of spatial and also river basin management plans and for the purpose of sustainable development in the region.
