Description (Dublin Core)

eng The water demand in Southern Croatia, where Dugi Otok is situated, is the highest during the summer due to tourism, irrigation requirements and intensive use of water by local dwellers and those in holiday-homes. The availability and cost of safe water there, varies greatly from one settlement to another. Some rural areas and many Adriatic islands remote from regional water-supply systems don't have sufficient safe water, and dwellers are forced to buy at high price, water supplied by water carriers (truck-tanks and ship-tanks) during the long summer season. Therefore, a pilot water-supply project has been implemented at Dugi Otok island. The useful experience gained from this project can be applied in many other rural settlements in Southern Croatia and wider, after adequate surveying and analysis.
hrv Potreba za vodom u južnoj Hrvatskoj gdje se nalazi Dugi otok, najveća je tijekom ljeta zbog turizma, navodnjavanja, te intenzivnog korištenja vode od strane domaćeg stanovništva i onog u kućama za odmor. Cijena pitke vode znatno varira od jednog naselja do drugog. Neka ruralna područja i mnogi Jadranski otoci, udaljeni od regionalnih vodoopskrbnih sustava, nemaju dovoljno pitke vode i tamošnji stanovnici su prisiljeni tijekom duge ljetne sezone kupovati po visokoj cijeni vodu koju dopremaju kamioni-cisterne. Stoga je probni vodoopskrbni projekt realiziran na Dugom Otoku. Iskustva dobivena na ovom projektu mogu se nakon odgovarajućeg terenskog snimanja i analiza korisno primijeniti u mnogim ruralnim naseljima u južnoj Hrvatskoj i šire.
