Kosovo Water Statistics 2015
Introduction
This is the first publication of Water Statistics, published by the Kosovo
Agency of Statistics. This publication aims to inform about comprehensive
statistical water resources in Kosovo. This modest publication aims to
contribute to creating a sustainable information on the state of water in
Kosovo.
The publication is based on Law on Official Statistics No. 04/L-036, the
Law on Waters of Kosovo No.04/L-143, 2013, and Eurostat Questionnaire
(The joint questionnaire / Inland waters / JQIW 2014).
KAS thanks to institutions for cooperation concerned with monitoring and
management of waters in Kosovo, such as: Ministry of Environment and
Spatial Planning, Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Rural Development,
Regulatory Office of Waters in Kosovo, Hydrometeorology Institute,
Hydro-economic Enterprise "Iber Lepenci", NewCo Ferronikeli Complex
LLC, KEDS, SharrCem SH.PK Plant in Skenderaj.

difference within the territory of Kosovo and the lack of water is much
greater in the eastern than in the western part of the country. Kosovo can
be divided into three climatic zones (see Table 3). On average, Kosovo

2. Ponds in Kosovo
Water is an important natural resource and as such has indispensable role
for the life of living beings on earth, indispensable resource for economic
development of the country, plays crucial roles in regulating climate,
therefore the management and conservation of water resources,
ecosystems of fresh water, of drinking water, is vital for the country.
Most of Kosovo's water resources originate in the country, with the
exception of the upper part of the River Ibri, which originates in Montenegro
and flows into Lake Ujmani. Hydrography of water flows of Kosovo is
divided in 4 river ponds: the White Drini (Drini i Bardhë), Ibri, Morava e
Binçës, and Lepenci (see Tab.5).

5. Groundwater
Groundwater resources are limited and are located mainly in the western
part of Kosovo, while surface water resources are larger than in the eastern
part of Kosovo.
According to the Water Master Plan for Kosovo 1983-2000, the greatest
potential of groundwater are in the Dukagjin Valley.

waters. The only plant to treat wastewater is treatment plant for wastewater
in Llaushë of Skenderaj.
The following table provides data for services provided for wastewater for
households, business and industrial use.
