The Zăpodie is a right tributary of the river Someșul Mic in Romania.[1][2] It discharges into the Someșul Mic in Sânnicoară near Cluj-Napoca. Its length is 11 km (6.8 mi) and its basin size is 44 km2 (17 sq mi).[2] The river was polluted by the leachate from the nearby city landfill for many years, until in December 2019 when the landfill was finally closed and a protection wall was completed.[3]
