Official statistics were used for an investigation of wastewater disposal structure, for a study of characteristics of pollutants in urban sewage and estimation of anthropogenic (pollutant) load on receiving waters. The capacities of town sewage plants and efficiency of wastewater refinement are examined. It is shown that wastewater discharged without adequate treatment into surface waters has affected water bodies that have created some problems in water resources use. Pollution of receiving waters is analyzed.
