2/DU/1/056	Ortsgemeinde Kamp-Bornhofen Sicherung und Neugestaltung des Uberschwemmungsgebietes des Rheines in Kamp-Bornhofen At the time of more eminent high water events there are rising dangers for the population as well as a high damage potential along the river bank of the Rhine. Arising opportunities shall be taken to withdraw the utilisations to recover lost areas of high water discharge and retention and to control misled land utilisation on a large scale. The project intends to adjust the existing buildings and land utilisations to the conditions in the flood plains as a part of the village renewal programme.	68.513,-
3/DU/1/057	Stadt Schwaigern Hochwasserschutz durch landwirtschaftliche Mab nahmen This pilot project aims at applying preventive measures to run-offs and high water levels, so that the rain-water may infiltrate as far as possible. Unlike more conventional means such as the smoothening of run-off waves, this projects proposes to reduce run-off rate instead of the run-off wave. The realisation of the announced measures will be accompanied by field studies which should then quantify the agricultural effects (profits, quality) and effects on water economy (surface run-off) of the agricultural measures.	89.040,-
1/LUX/2/058	Gemeinde Beaufort Alternative, naturnahe Regenwasserbewirtschaftung in Beaufort This project aims at assuring that the concept of village development is well managed and prepared to integrate the sustainable standards. The specific objectives of this entails firstly the separation, collection and discharge of surface and waste water, along with replenishment of the groundwater; secondly, reduction of the high water peak in the flowing water; and as last relief for the respective improvement of cleaning capability of the existing sewage treatment plant.	409.775,25
1/NL/3/059	Waterschap Velt en Vecht Retentie in het Ommerkanaal Project ‘Retentie in het Ommerkanaal’ in particular can be characterised by the creation of retention by means of an overflow area at both sides of the Ommerkanaal. As such, the high-peak discharges will be reduced in the direction of the German-Dutch river of the Overijsselse Vecht. On addition to this, ecological standards, scenic landscaping and recreation features will also be restored and improved in quality.	245.623,-
3/BE/3/060	Ministère Wallon de l’Équipement et des Transports (MET) MOHICAN (Modèle global de simulation du bassin de la Meuse en Région Wallonne) The main objective of the project is to simulate the hydraulic reactions, with the establishment of the MOHICAN model. This hydraulic model is specifically created to establish the essential factors that influence the behaviour of the river basin, and in a way that they may be globally represented (i.e. rainfall, nature of soils, hydraulic, agricultural planning). These factors shall be coherently integrated into three compartments and scales in time (soils, water tables and the hydraulic network).	322.500,-
3/BE/1/061	Ministerie van de Vlaamse Gemeenschap - Afdeling Maas en Albertkanaal Studie opdracht voor het Mijnverzakkingsgebied The objective of the project is to develop a model within the framework of this study assignment to be able to use it for high water simulations at the site. The study results will clarify the way in which the Meuse dike plan can be developed so that the winter dike design in the mine subsidence area can be based on the study. The overall effect is to give more space to the river, while fitting in the plans of the Living Meuse Border project.	72.027,-
2/NL/1/062	Ministerie van Verkeer en Waterstaat / Directoraat-Generaal Rijkswaterstaat / Directie Limburg Maaswerken: Grensmaas (Preparatory phase) The section of the river Meuse in which this project is located is known as the ‘Border Meuse’. The Border Meuse (Grensmaas) stretches from Maastricht to Roosteren (a lenght of approximately 45 km). There are no flood barriers along this section of the Meuse. Because the Meuse Valley is very low-lying here compared with the surrounding landscape, the problem of flooding is restricted to the valley itself. After the floods in 1993 and 1995 and the publication of the Boertien Committee’s main report on the Meuse flooding, the Limburg directorate of the Department of Public Works and Water Management (RWS) launched the Sand Meuse project. The Boertien Committee recommended deepening the river’s summer bed and putting up dikes in high-risk areas. The Boertien Committee’s recommendations were incorporated into the national Major Rivers Delta Plan. The Border Meuse project, which had been started up some time before, also acquired a further aim: to offer protection against flooding and to encourage the development of a more natural Meuse. The aim is to reduce the risk of flooding to less than 1/250 per year. For more information: www.maaswerken.nl	7.412.779,-
2/NL/1/063	Ministerie van Verkeer en Waterstaat / Directoraat-Generaal Rijkswaterstaat / Directie Oost Nederland Steenwaard This is a multifunctional project pertaining to nature development, water catchment and safety assurance. Steenwaard consists of two sub-projects - 'Veerweg' (ferry route) which encompasses the removal of substantial hydraulic bottlenecks and 'Nature & Water' which looks at nature development and construction facilities for water catchment.	266.600,-
1/NL/3/064	Gemeente Loon op Zand Vloeivelden Loon op Zand The project proposes that a system be constructed in the place where the former sewage treatment fields of Loon op Zand were situated; the system would purify, buffer and infiltrate a part of the effluent from STW North-Tilburg. The project primarily researches the situation to derive a solution for the area by establishing a constructed wetland system for the purification of the effluent.	59.984,-
2/NL/1/065	Ministerie van Verkeer en Waterstaat / Directoraat-Generaal Rijkswaterstaat / Directie Limburg Maaswerken: Zandmaas (Preparatory phase) The unprotected section of the river Meuse in the Netherlands runs from Eijsden to Boxmeer (km 0 to 148). There are no flood barriers along this section of the Meuse. Because the Meuse Valley is very low-lying here compared with the surrounding landscape, the problem of flooding is restricted to the valley itself. After the floods in 1993 and 1995 and the publication of the Boertien Committee’s main report on the Meuse flooding, the Limburg directorate of the Department of Public Works and Water Management (RWS) launched the Sand Meuse project. The Boertien Committee recommended deepening the river’s summer bed and putting up dikes in high-risk areas. The Boertien Committee’s recommendations were incorporated into the national Major Rivers Delta Plan. The aim is to reduce the risk of flooding to less than 1/250 per year. The Sand Meuse project will require preparatory work to be carried out which, although it will have little or no effect on the water level, is nevertheless vital if the river is to be enlarged. The purpose of the pilot projects is to test the design process and the method of implementation of the chosen river enlargement method in actual practice, to obtain a clearer picture of the hydrological, morphological and ecological effects, to facilitate the targeted co-operation between the parties involved and to provide an example of the way the Sand Meuse project should be tackled. The eroding banks pilot project includes a site at which the consequences of pilot 1 to 3 will be recorded. For more information: www.maaswerken.nl	14.487.250,-
1/DU/2/066	Stadtverwaltung Neuenburg am Rhein Regenwasserversickerung in Neuenburg am Rhein The municipality intends to achieve extensive ground seepage in the town area in order to derive a general drainage plan for which a programme is implemented to avoid direct discharge of rainwater into the Rhine (sewage-separated-system). This plan will also largely exclude the joint discharge with waste water (sewage-mixed-system). The objective of this project is to renew an environmentally favourable and cost effective rainwater treatment.	1.115.597,-
1/DU/1/067	Hessische Ministerium für Umwelt, Landwirtrschaft und Forsten Vorbeugender Hochwasserschutz im Einzugsgebiet der hessischen Lahn A detailed concept for the remediation of the Lahn that is ecologically founded already exists, but an exemplary concept of flood protection is missing. The State of Hesse intends to develop an integrated managerial concept and to provide a model realisation from 1999 to 2001 also as a means of support for exemplary sub-projects. For more information: www.uni-kassel.de/fb14/wasserbau/lahn/lahn_eng.ghk	2.045.167,50
3/FR/3/068	Navigation du Nord-Est Atlas des zones inondables de la Moselle et de la Meurthe The objective is to create an atlas and the project has been designed to investigate modelling of the river Moselle. The results of the research aims at mapping the risks of flooding, and for the Meurthe zone the atlas will include a hydrogeomorphological approach because of more urbanisation.	457.360,50
1/NL/2/069	Gemeenschappelijke Regeling Bergerden Glastuinbouw Bergerden The project specifically looks at the area of Bergerden which is an industrial zone for new greenhouse horticultural companies.
