Aquatic legal surveys

The aquatic legal survey is a technical documentation indispensable for acquiring the aquatic and legal permit issued by the authorised body and permitting water use. The rules of acquiring and issuing permits are regulated by Water Law Act of 20.07.2017.

  • Damming and retention of inland surface water;
  • Using water for energetic purposes;

  • Extraction of stone, gravel, sand and other materials from water and cutting of plants from water or the shore;
  • Use of inland surface water for fishing purposes;
• Making constructions for implementation of civil structures and works in areas of imminent flooding;
• Water control and terrain shape change in areas adjacent to water and influencing water flow conditions;
