6. Összefoglalás (Tanulságok és feladatok)

The limits of their water works withdrawing water from deep confined aquifers are the limits to their urbanization and industrialization as well. Consequently, it is urgent and of vital importance for improving their adverse position to establish the „Central Tisza Regional Water Supply System" which will be of the same basic importance for the future of the area as the Kisköre barrage and storage lake. From the analysis of the 30 years of water management development a very essential conclusion can be drawn; namely, the building of socialism (i. e., socialist industrialization passing through the same course of development as the first industrial revolution but in a planned and accelerated way) has arrived at a new period, which is characterized by the worldwide process of the ,,second industrial revolution" (i. e., the technical-scientific revolution) and urbanization. As a consequence of this evolution, the Central Tisza Region considered underdeveloped not long ago is also confronted with all the typical problems of this new period, including besides water management and pollution control, the general problem of environment protection as well.
