Abstract
Purpose: analysis of the water bodies state monitoring system operating on the territory of Russia, identification of problems of accounting for diffuse pollution of water bodies in the framework of state monitoring of water bodies and development of proposals for its improvement. Materials and methods. Data from the Ministry of Natural Resources of Russia, Russian meteorological service, Federal Service of State Statistics, research by Russian scientists on this theme, and Internet materials were used as materials for research. Methods of systemic complex study, comparison, generalization and analysis of data were used. Results. The unified system of state environmental monitoring (state monitoring of environment), founded to ensure environmental protection in Russia, and the system of state monitoring of water bodies included in it, and its organizational aspects are analyzed. Problems that do not allow to assess the diffuse pollution of water bodies reliably, especially dangerous and significant in size in the zones of agricultural production, located mainly in the catchments of small rivers when conducting state monitoring of water bodies have been identified. Conclusions. The composition and structure of water bodies state monitoring data, which is currently operating, are mainly focused on monitoring water quality in the zone of industrial-urbanized territories, which are characterized by point (concentrated) types of pollution sources, and their intensity is relatively stable in time and space. The solution to the problem of identifying diffuse sources of water bodies pollution, assessing the degree of their impact on the quality of water resources and exercising control over them is represented in organization and conduct of special (additional) work during all typical hydrological seasons - flooding and high water, especially their upward branches, within the framework of water bodies state monitoring.
