“…Babko et al 2016;Pliashechnyk et al 2018, Majerek et al 2019, then there are much fewer works related to the impact of stormwater runoffs.Bioindication was conducted against the background of water quality assessment using chemical indicators such as BOD 5 and COD. In the literature, there is a some of works relating to the assessment of water quality in the Bystrzyca river within the city of LublinGrzywna et al 2016;Gorzel et al 2018]. According to literature reports, the water quality studies in Bystrzyca conducted in 2016 indicated that in the segment below the Zemborzycki Lake, BOD 5 reached the average value of 7.36 mgO 2 /l at coefficient of variation of 10%[Grzywna et al 2016], which is similar to the value obtained in this study.…”

Slightly lower BOD 5 values were observed by Gorzel et al in the study on the Bystrzyca river tributaries, which was conducted in 2003-2004; the mean BOD 5 values reached the level up to 6.1 mg O 2 /l[Gorzel et al 2018].…”

Effect of Stormwater System on the Receiver

The surface water quality assessment could be based on a combined physical and chemical analysis, but it could also be determined with bioindication methods. Classical physicochemical analysis is in most cases more expensive and time-consuming than the bioindication methods. This type of analysis also requires expensive equipment and shows the situation in the water only at the moment of sampling. Although the bioindication methods are often complicated, they allow a relatively inexpensive estimation of the water quality. Moreover, during their implementation, the substances harmful to the environment are not generated, and the obtained results usually reflect the total interaction of all factors and substances to the analyzed living organisms. Indicator organisms or their communities applied to the research, with identified ranges of tolerance to selected factors, could help to determine the physical and chemical parameters of water. This paper presents a bioindication study with an effect of stormwater system on the receiver-the Bystrzyca river, in Lublin, Poland. The level of saprophyty of the river sector was calculated based on the selected species of algae (diatoms and green algae) and the influence of the stormwater discharge on the communities of these organisms was determined.

“…The following tributaries have an outlet into the Bystrzyca River: Kosarzewka at 47 km, Kreżniczanka at 40 km, Czerniejówka at 26 km, Czechówka at 25 km, and Ciemięga at 12 km (from the outlet of the Bystrzyca river). From kilometer 18 to 38, the Bystrzyca River flows through the city of Lublin [51,52]. For this reason, the causes of eutrophication of surface water can be: intensive suburbanization, industrial activity, recreation, and agriculture.…”

The aim of the study was to analyze the results of surface water quality tests carried out in the Bystrzyca river basin. The study was conducted over four years in four seasons. The following chemometric techniques were used for the purposes of statistical analyses: the principal component analysis with factor analysis (PCA/FA), the hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA), and the discriminant analysis (DA). The analyses allowed for determining the temporal variability in water quality between the seasons. The best water quality was recorded in summer and the worst in autumn. The analyses did not provide a clear assessment of the spatial variability of water quality in the river basin. Pollution from wastewater treatment plants and soil tillage had a similar effect on water quality. The tested samples were characterized by very high electrolytic conductivity, suspended solids and P-PO4 concentrations and the water quality did not meet the standards of good ecological status.

“…Pollution of natural waters is a common phenomenon and its main cause is the presence of various substances in water that may come from natural or artificial sources [Policht-Latawiec et al 2014]. Progressive economic development, especially in various branches of industry, has a negative impact on the environment [Grzywna et al 2016]. The surface waters are the most susceptible to pollution [Kalda and Miętus 2016].…”

The purpose of this paper was to assess the influence of the city of Przemyśl on the quality of water in the San River. The water analysis carried out by the Voivodeship Environmental Protection Inspector in Rzeszów as part of the operational monitoring in 2014 and in 2017 was used in the study. The concentrations of selected physicochemical indicators determined in two measurement and control points located above and below the city of Przemyśl were taken into account. For each water quality indicator, the minimum and maximum values were determined and the arithmetic averages from the research period were calculated. In addition, the regularly performed indicators were subjected to a detailed statistical analysis. Box plot graphs show the extreme values, the median and the interquartile range. Water quality has been assigned to the appropriate class and category of surface waters. Selected specific pollutants and priority substances in the river water were also analysed. Only the concentration of benzo(a) pyrene at the measuring points did not comply with the environmental quality standards. It was found that the city of Przemyśl has a small influence on the quality of water in the San River. Although there was a deterioration of water quality at the measurement and control point below the city, its class and category did not change.
