In order to achieve this objective and to accomplish this task, physical and economic models of the recipients, the Danube and the Sajó River are being developed in the pilot zones. The physical and economic models will make possible to determine the allowable load of the recipients and as a function thereof, the quantitative and qualitative limit values that should be imposed on dischargers, as well as the investment costs necessary to attain optimal limit-values. On the basis of the results obtained from the economic models a suitable investment shedule will be developed together with the incentive system serving it, and with a proposal on a regional water quality management system with regard to its legal and administrative aspects. As both pilot zones are situated in a drainage basin shared by two countries, problems in connection with inter-state co-ordination of water quality control programmes are also to be studied. The project includes studies on methods of analysis (including automated methods), optimization studies on effluent discharges with respect to selfpurification capacity of waters and treatment required, adaptation of new waste treatment technology to Hungarian conditions, establishment of regional water quality control schemes including legal and administrative aspects. It is not the intention of this article to report in details on research, studies and other works accomplished or being under way in the frame of the project discussed; this will certainly be done by my distinguished colleagues, the Hungarian keyspecialists, working in the several areas of the project. I should rather concentrate on organizational and managerial matters, on prospects of achieving the Project objectives and on the utilization of Project results (follow-up). Moreover, I would like to use the opportunity to present in the second part of this article the most important information connected with the execution of the long-term programme in environmental pollution control in Europe of the World Health Organization, which has been approved by the WHO Regional Committee at its nineteenth session in 1969. Organizational matters. Government's and UN DP j WHO inputs The National Water Authority (NWA) is the highest authority of centralized water management in Hungary and has overall responsibility for combating pollution in the country. Water pollution control is carried out under the supervision of the Department for Environmental Protection of NWA, by the Centre for Water Resources created in 1967, the various District Water Authorities and the Research Institute for Water Resources Development (VITUK1), all of whom take a share in the work. Laboratories responsible for taking samples from surface waters and for performing analyses on them have been organized to serve each district water authority. VITUKI is responsible for professional guidance, and in the frame of the project, also for the scientific co-ordination of project activities. There are three district water authorities affected by the research and sampling along the two pilot zones: for Pilot Zone I (Sajó) the NorthHungary District Water Authority with head-
