7.4 Land and water management

There are no management activities in the Tivat Salina. On the other hand, the Ulcinj Salina is filled with seawater. At the beginning of April, strong pumps (3 000 l/sec) start drawing water and pump it into shallow basins with an average depth of 20-30 cm. From the entry to the saltpans until crystallisations, the water travels several dozen kilometres and under the influence of the sun and strong wind it evaporates. From the initial 3.8 g/l salt, it reaches 235 g/l salt at the end of production (Savlejic, 2008).
