Risk Management in Mine-Contaminated Water Resources

Mine contamination is one of the main obstacles to economic recovery and other types of progress in Croatia. Therefore, the primary goal of demining operations by 2010 is to clear all suspected minefields and restore them so as to make them available for their previous use. In 1998 Croatian government founded the Croatian Mine Action Centre (CROMAC) which took over management of all demining operations in Croatia. CROMAC closely collaborates with international institutions and organizations. Also, CROMAC develops very intensive and efficient counter-mine action, which, in its first years, had very distinctive priorities but, as time passed by, priority assessment task became more complex and complicated, and annual evaluation of demining plans demands more complex methodological approach. The paper describes a DSS (Decision Support Systems) aimed at determining the objective priorities to reduce the risks stemming from mine contamination in the field of water resources. In Croatia, state entities are responsible for the management and development of particular resources, such as traffic infrastructure, energy infrastructure, state forests, water resources, etc. They are very interested in demining their own priority areas. One such state entity is "Croatian Waters" responsible for water resource management in the Republic of Croatia. During the war watercourses were exposed to mine activities both by the enemy and Croatian Army, the latter for purposes of defence. Namely, watercourses were natural border and very often, separation lines. This explains their high degree of mine contamination during the conflict in Croatia. Mine contaminated water resources, to a great extent, restrain basic water management activities: flood management, water supply systems, navigation influencing directly safety and the living standards of the local population and, at the same time, limit efficient economic development. They also pose a significant safety problem. In particular, any activities that are carried out in the mine contaminated areas pose a significant risk to human life and to property. The aforementioned factors demonstrate the extreme complexity of the problem, demanding detailed analysis in order to prevent negative consequences caused by the interaction of water and mine contaminated areas. Regarding possible consequences of watercourses mine contamination needs to be solved as a priority. However, due to the scope of the problem as well as due to the complex conditions of the demining process, high demining costs are to be expected in almost every case. Described DSS is based on a combination of GIS (Geographical Information System) analysis and a multicriteria method in order to enable eficacious risk management in the field of water resources, namely setting demining priorities in order to optimally reduce risk caused by mine contaminated water resources. Furthermore, the model incorporates the views of all interested parties, i.e. the representatives, whether public or political, of the contaminated territories. Since the intention was to make decision process more objective, developed model uses hierarchic approach, as it is noticed the need for the different approaches to the different decision levels, during criteria evaluation, modelling the decision problem in the most appropriate way.
