River Basin Management Planning
River Basin Management Planning
Working to the Water Framework Directive
Under the Water Framework Directive, all river catchments are assigned to a River Basin District (RBD). Protected Areas are defined as those water-dependent areas that are designated under other EU directives. Member states must produce river basin management plans by 2009. The planning process should include an economic analysis of all the water uses, as well as determining the pressures and impacts on the water environment.
