Current research aims at establishment of the rivers ecological status in the Arda River sub-basin. Data on Biotic Index at 66 sampling sites in the period 2000-2006 and additionally 25 common physical and inorganic chemical parameters at 7 sites during 2004-2006 have been assessed. The results for the sub-basin indicate a risk of failing to achieve good ecological status by 2015.
