Popis: In Lithuania the transboundary groundwater flows have been identified in border area with Belarus, Latvia, Poland and Kaliningrad oblast (Russia). There is a different level of aquifer identification. Although the research do not indicate the influence of groundwater abstraction on the qualitative and quantitative parameters. The paper describe the major projects carried out in the areas of transboundary aquifers base on the cross-border activities conducted in accordance with the requirements of the EU Water Framework Directive. The need of obtaining representative information on the qualitative and quantitative status of drinking groundwater resources was identified. This information should become a background for scientific works for sustainable management of groundwater resources shared with neighboring countries.
