These problemshave become particularly severe for the developing countries, adversely affecting their agriculture, drinking water supply and sanitation. Water recourse management is no more just a challenger it is a declared crises [1]. Water resources in Kosova are relatively small, total amount of water in our country is small around 1600 m3/inhabitant /year [2]. Territory of Kosova is separated in four river basins: Drini i Bardhë, Ibri, Morava e Binqës and Lepenci.Drini i Bardhë river basin is in the western part of Kosova, it is the biggest river basin with surface of 4.289 km2. Drini i Bardhë discharges its water to Albania and fi nally to the Adriatic Sea [3]. The area consist of several small stream from the mountains,water fl ows into tributaries and Drini i Bardhë River. The mean run-off in the area is 141 l/s/km2, but it varies considerably (5 to 50l/s/km2), precipitation varies from 600 to 1400 mm/a.Protecting from pollution is a very important issue having in consideration that this river discharges its water and outside the territory.
