Environmental Ordinance, Conservation and Recovery of Water Systems

The site “Preservation and restoration of water systems” is based on the Regional Water Programme and based on watercourses with the function of water nature, (wet) ecological connection zones and areas referred to in the reconstruction and area plans as “space for brook and creek restoration”. In these areas, the policy is based on a regional interest aimed at preserving, improving and restoring the natural water system. Within the areas, measures have been or are being carried out in the field of morphology, such as the re-membrance of streams, the construction of pee-dras zones and the restoration of torment. That is why there is also a need for space next to the watercourse in order to be able to implement the measures properly. Many of the measures are also an obligation stemming from the European Water Framework Directive. Within the areas, instruction rules apply to limitations on functions and activities that hinder or make unnecessarily costly the realisation of water system repair.
