Sažetak
The paper presents the Croatian approach to the determination of limit values and indicators of potential groundwater pollution in the Danube River Basin District and Adriatic River Basin District. The criteria for determining limit values are elaborated in detail and adapted to the characteristics of hydrogeological systems and their associated or dependent terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems in the Republic of Croatia, i.e. referent quality standards, such as criteria values and background concentrations. Different methods for assessing background concentrations, which were used in the procedure of limit value determination in the Republic of Croatia, were analysed and the reliability of results obtained by applying different methods based on shared criteria were considered. The procedure of determining the criteria values for important recipients and different groundwater uses were described; the main types of limit values used in the procedures of chemical status assessment and risk assessment in individual river basin districts were analysed and described in particular. The procedure of determining background concentrations and limit values for selected substances and indicators were demonstrated on the example of the groundwater body group Eastern Slavonia – Drava and Danube basin.
