Specifics of the organization of state water monitoring (on the example of the Volga river within the boundaries of the Volgograd region)

The article presents materials on studying the state of the Volga River within the boundaries of the Volgograd region by analyzing monitoring studies of the water area at the regional level. To studythe specifics of the organization of state control, it is necessaryto have an idea of the extent of the impact of various factors at the regional level. Taking into account the data obtained is the basis for conducting a comparative analysis of the degree of contamination based on data obtained during laboratory studies. Sampling points along the length of the Volga River on the territory of Volgograd are highlighted. The priority criterion when choosing the coordinates of sampling points for determining the ecological state of the Volga River in the territory of the administrative center of the Volgograd region is the presence of industrial facilities.
