Flood Directive 2019 II Cycle — Emilia-Romagna Region — Po Basin, risk, punctual geometry

The cartography represents the elements at risk with PUNTUAL geometry that may suffer potential negative consequences from floods in relation to the Union of Management (UoM) district of the Po river (ITN008), in the portion falling within the Emilia-Romagna Region, expressed in terms of: economic and social activities insistent on the area, plants that could cause accidental pollution in the event of floods — Ref. D. Lgs. 59/2005 and Legislative Decree 152/2006-, strategic structures (hospital settlements, schools), cultural heritage (cultural goods), etc. The risk map developed responds to two different approaches: according to the requirements of Directive 2007/60/EC (Article 6), it indicates the presence and location of the elements exposed within the areas with different flood hazards identified in the hazard maps, distinct in some codified categories; according to the requirements of Legislative Decree 49/2010, combining the probability of flooding with the vulnerability to flood phenomena and with the value of the exposed elements, it classifies the territory into 4 risk classes, R1 (moderate), R2 (medium), R3 (high), R4 (very high), pursuant to D.P.C.M. 29 September 1998.
