| Abstract | In the framework of the present paper, the phenomenon of pollution of water bodies due to the stormwater of interurban roads is examined and presented. The mechanism through which this phenomenon takes place is examined. The most important pollutants included in the discharges of the interurban roads together with the factors affecting their pollutant load are presented. The existing framework in E.U. concerning the pollution of water bodies due to these discharges is examined. The review on the respective U.S. legislation is also presented since it is interesting and important and pre-exists E.U. legislation. Finally, some views concerning the river basin management plans and the recovery of costs for water services of Directive 2000/60/EC are presented, which are related to the impacts of interurban roads runoff to receiving water bodies, surface and ground. |
