The Vipacco is the main left tributary of the Isonzo River [38]. It originates from karstic springs at Mount San Lorenzo in Slovenia (1019 m a.s.l.), where its course runs for 45 km in Slovenia, then crosses the border with Italy and continues for 4.5 km within the municipality of Savogna d’Isonzo before emptying into the Isonzo. The Italian stretch of the Vipacco is an interesting sampling site: the slightly modified watercourse flows across a high plain that is largely rural, with some agricultural/small industrial activity and wastewater discharge. The Vipacco is included in the monitoring framework of the Regional Agency for Environmental Protection of Friuli-Venezia Giulia (ARPA FVG) and is sensitive to anthropic pressures and impacts from the upstream area in Slovenia (http://www.arpaweb.fvg.it) (accessed on 29 September 2021).
