Effective management and protection of nature resources in Jelgava and Siauliai cities (NATURE PROTECT)

According to the recent assessment of the national environmental authorities, the Lielupe River basin is at the risk not to achieve the EU water policy target – to have good water status by 2015. 75% of the river waters in Latvian part and 81% of Lithuanian part have a potential to fail meeting water policy objectives.
