Abstract
Based on the monitoring of changes in the state of reservoirs over the past 50 years, the ways of their revitalization were analyzed and proposed in order to form a full-fledged waterway and return to the lands of transport part of the Dnipro reservoirs.
The Dnipro, on which a cascade of (six) reservoirs was built, forms the main element of the waterway from the Black Sea to the Baltic. But over the past 60 years, annual siltation and sedimentation of bottom sediments have significantly worsened the state of navigation on the Dnipro. Thus, depths of about three meters were formed on three sections, which makes it impossible for loaded cargo vessels to pass. The inland waterway on the Dnipro River is one of the main European integration elements of transport corridors and communications in Ukraine.
During the study, the condition of six reservoirs of the Dnipro cascade and hydraulic structures on the Dnipro, changes in shorelines and depths of the lake, shore protection works, coverage of the natural entropy of the aquatic environment were analyzed.
It is proposed to build alluvial and bulk peninsulas and islands, canals, which will allow, deepening the bottom of the Kamyanske, Kremenchuk and Kyiv reservoirs in the upper parts, to restore the full passage of cargo ships (barges) on silted areas. This will significantly improve the ecological condition of waters and return to economic use thousands of hectares of reclaimed land.
