Evaluation of the Sanitary Engineering Activity Contribution in the Decrease of Specific Nutrient Yield into the Baltic Sea from the Volkovka and Okhta Rivers Watersheds of St. Petersburg

Abstract
Overabundant specific nutrient yield into the Baltic Sea results in its anthropogenic eutrophication. The Baltic Sea watershed countries including Russia aim to coordinate actions for protection of the sea marine environment. There is the environment protection committee (Helcom). The specific nutrient yields from watersheds of the Volkovka and Okhta Rivers of St. Petersburg were evaluated with usage of our methods. The specific nutrient yields were compared with ones calculated on the base of the numbers of inhabitants within the watersheds according to the Helcom methods. The research demonstrates that activity of the sanitary engineering and the state unitary enterprise (SUE) “Vodokanal of St. Petersburg” reduces nutrient load on the Baltic Sea from the watersheds in 19–45 times for total phosphorus and in 7–20 times for total nitrogen. The SUE “Vodokanal of St. Petersburg” is a conservational enterprise focused on the Baltic Sea environment protection.
