Within the framework of legislation and planning principles, the assessability of the targets identified in the target analysis has been reviewed by evaluating the existing legislation. The reductions in discharge standards and the future degrees of improvement of the Ergene River quality have been analyzed, and the existing industrial discharges have been defined based on the targets with appropriate treatment strategies. An institutional structure and necessary legal arrangements that can integrate with the basin-based management system have been defined, and strategies related to the monitoring and auditing system have been established. A cost analysis of the management system has been conducted, and alternatives have been developed for necessary financing procurement.
