Assessment methodology for the development management efficiency of the Huanghe river basin territories

The territories of river basins historically have a high potential and act as a catalyst for the development of regional systems through access to natural resources, favorable transport conditions and recreation. The Yellow River connects the eastern and western regions of China with its basin, forming a single economic vector for the adjacent territories. Determining the effectiveness of programs and projects for the integrated development of water basin territories should be based on a system of evaluation criteria. The article presents a methodological apparatus that allows in the future to determine the most effective directions for the development of basin territories, based on the proposed system of evaluation indices.
