EU water protection strategy in the future will be based on the Frame Work Directive developed by EU Commission. For the first time in EU a comprehensive basic document lays down the legal frame-work which links together a series of already existing special directives for the protection of all surface and ground waters. One of these special directives is the Urban Waste Water Directive 271/91 which is especially interesting in regard to the future nutrient management in the Black Sea Catchment. Most of the countries within the Danube Catchment aim to become members of the EU at the same time the International Convention for the Protection of River Danube has already came into force, where EU will play an important role. The paper tries to outline the consequences of the "Combined Approach" contained in the EU Frame-work directive for the implementation of pollution reduction policy in regard to receiving water protection problems for tributaries (country level), the Danube River and the Black Sea. It turns out that for many tributaries the environmental standard principle will be decisive while for the large catchments and for the abatement of eutrophication in the Black Sea a strong precautionary principle will be advantageous at least for the next decade. It is also clear that for eutrophication abatement diffused sources of nutrients play a decisive role which implies that agriculture has to be included into water protection strategy from the beginning
