7 Water Quality in Main Dam Reservoirs in Poland

Table 7.1 Classification of water quality in analysed dam reservoirs
of a priority substance tested in water or biota leads to lowering the classification of
chemical state to “below good” (Table 7.1).
8 reservoirs have a good chemical status: Klimkówka, Czorsztyn, Ro˙ znów,
Dobczyce, Solina, Besko, Włocławek and Nysa. Other reservoirs have a bad chemical status (Fig. 7.13). In most reservoirs bad chemical status was due to exceeded
concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH): Benzo(ghi)perylene,
Indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene (Table 7.2).
Overall status classification points to a good status for reservoirs located in the
Carpathians: Klimkówka, Czorsztyn, Ro˙ znów, Solina, Besko, and Dobczyce. Other
reservoirs have a bad status of water (Fig. 7.14).
