In 1991, a Memorandum of Understanding MoU on Environmental Cooperation was signed between The Netherlands Government and the USSR Government. RIZA implemented the MoU programmes and projects. Its partnership with RosNIIVKh in Ekaterinburg has been the backbone for the co-operation. From the beginning of the partnership there have been three lines of co-operation: work on macro invertebrate communities as indicators of the ecological health of rivers; work on integrated water management planning in the Tura river basin; and studies on water economics and standards for surface water quality.
