Many of the existing national water laws are adopting principles similar to European water legislation, particularly the Water Framework Directive and its daughter directives. For example, Water Law no. 272/2011 in Moldova has partly harmonised its water legislation with European (Republic of Moldova, 2011) on the protection of water against nitrate pollution from agricultural sources, bathing waters, environmental quality standards in the field of water policy and on urban wastewater treatment. In Ukraine, the process of implementation of European water policy started with the new legislation, namely, the Water Code of Ukraine (amended on 4 October 2016). The Code sets the basis for the implementation of extended water quality monitoring programmes, for example to support the assessment of ecological status of surface water bodies. Georgia adopted new water legislation in 1997, and at present is reforming its national environmental legislation and water protection sector to adapt to EU water legislation (Vystavna et al., 2018).
