AB  - Groundwater is vulnerable to several kinds of pollution which are related to developments of human activities. Successful protection from pollution can be done by determination of sanitary protection zones. In Kosovo, groundwater protection from contamination which are used to supply the population with drinking water is regulated by the Administrative Instruction No.13/07. For groundwater source (extraction water wells) in the locality “Konjuh” in Lipjan which is used to supply with drinking water it is designed its protection from contamination by determining sanitary protection zones around it. With the application of different analytical methods is rebuilt (outlined) a zone of contribution of wellhead and three sanitary protection zones are defined around it: first zone (zone of immediate protection: 10.0 m), second zone (zone of intermediate protection; 290.0 m) and Third zone (extended zone of protection until to the hydrogeological watershed: 430.0 m). The application of different analytical methods for determining the sanitary protection zones in this case study whereas there was no sufficient hydrodynamic and hydrogeological data is shown relatively successful and reliable.
