Abstract
Aim: To perform expert assessment of monitoring data on air pollution and surface water in the Ryazan region, Central Russia. Methods: A descriptive study. The information of state standards and regulations in the field of sanitation and hygiene, local acts in the field of environmental monitoring, a number of federal and regional statistical books were studied, analyzed and systematized. Screening evaluation of the analytical information, identification and generalization of problems in the existing system of chemical monitoring and identification of hazards and risks were done. We used a method for analyzing and synthesizing statistical information and a method of converting absolute values to relative values. The system analysis allowed us to draw conclusions and recommendations and to suggest the directions for further research. Results: The analysis of atmospheric air and surface water pollution information in the Ryazan region is presented. The urgent need to change the existing system for monitoring atmospheric air and surface water is shown. The ways of the environment chemical monitoring effectiveness increasing and increasing the level of objectivity of environmental quality assessment procedures in the Ryazan region are outlined. The necessity of working and organizing a system of continuous operational monitoring of environmental components, monitoring of toxicants and implementation of independent expert monitoring of environment components with the further going aim to develop "Medical and ecological Atlas of Ryazan region". Conclusions: The situation with chemical pollution of the atmosphere and surface water objects in the Ryazan region has been stagnating since the 1990s. Periodic ultra-high pollution parameters were detected, in some cases exceeding the maximum permissible standards by tens and hundreds of times. The solution of the effectiveness and environmental quality assessment reliability problem lies in the improvement of the state monitoring system and the support of independent expert monitoring.
