Objective: We studied the legal framework of sanitary, ecological, water and urban planning legislation in the field of sanitary protection of water bodies and established its compliance with the requirements of the European Union Directives for the development of the measures for the solution of the problematic issues.
Materials and methods: The current legislative and regulatory documents of national legisla-tion and the EU directives in the field of the protection of water bodies were the objects of the study.
Results: As a result of the study of the legal framework of sanitary, ecological, water and town- planning legislation in the field of sanitary protection of water bodies and determination of its compliance with the requirements of the Directives of the European Union, the following were estab-lished.
Conclusions: The current legislative and regulatory framework of the sanitary legislation of Ukraine in the field of protection of water bodies needs the improvement in terms for the orientation to new mechanisms of economic regulation, decentralization of power and to the requirements of the EU Council Directives, the European standards of water quality.
In order to improve the sanitary-epidemiological state of water resources in Ukraine, their ra-tional use and protection, it is proposed to implement a state-and-legal policy in the field of sanitary water protection focused on the effective implementation of water legislation of Ukraine, preservation of water fund of Ukraine; combination of state-and-legal water policy with other directions of state policy; optimum coordination of architectural-planning, water-ecological, sanitary-epidemiological aspects and social interests; combination of rational use and protection of water bodies requiring special protection; priority of drinking water supply and water protection measures; implementation of international treaties for the purpose of proper legal, sanitary-epidemiological regime of trans-boundary water bodies; orientation on the European standards for quantitative and qualitative water status; ensuring of the implementation of the functions of management of use and sanitary protection of water; formation of ecological, sanitary-epidemiological ideology among the population.
