Purpose: to determine the main directions of engineering and environmental protection of water bodies in the area of reclamation systems.
Discussion. As a rule, irrigation and drainage canals have a long length, therefore their basin ecosystems cover not only agricultural fields, but also rural settlements, roads, livestock farms, poultry farms and other objects that affect the specifics of incoming pollutants. To reduce and compensate for possible environmental consequences in the zone of reclamation system influence, it is necessary to implement measures ensuring target environmentally acceptable indicators in the ecosystems located in it on an ongoing basis. The main directions of engineering and environmental protection of water bodies are presented, the sequence of decision-making stages on the choice of environmental measures are defined. The data on the discharge and collector-drainage waters of the reclamation systems of the Bagaevsky branch of the Federal State Budgetary Institution “Department of Land Reclamation and Agricultural Water Supply in Rostov Region” are considered as an example of an organized source of pollution. In fact, diversion channels and collectors are artificial tributaries of a water body, which requires the organization of the territory of their basins taking into account environmental protection measures.
Conclusions. Based on the data provided, the best environmental protection solution for the territories of the water basin with reclamation objects will be the implementation of a set of engineering and environmental protection measures. It is necessary to take into account the obtained environmental protection effects by maintaining environmental maps of the developed territories through local monitoring. The statistical data collected during the monitoring will allow taking timely measures to compensate for emerging environmentally negative problems.
