Geleenbeek, Terworm, Schinnen en Spaubeek An important component of this project is water retention in hilly areas to reduce erosion of the löss soils in this area. The major goal of the project is to redevelop the river valley so that runoff waves are not drained off unimpeded and the peak discharge from the catchment area is reduced. The activities consist of doing a hydrological study and implementing the redevelopment of the river valley, construction of a natural course with varying flow patterns while taking account of existing valuable vegetation as much as possible. |

Herinrichting Vloedgraaf An important component of the project is water retention in hilly areas to reduce erosion of the löss soils in this area. ‘De Vloedgraaf’ is a waterway in Middle-Limburg, east of the river Meuse. In reaction to the recent floods it has been decided to carry out plans that would create more room for the river and tributaries of the Meuse (Grensmaas/Zandmaas). Along with this water retention must be reduced at the peak discharges. |

Regenwaterbuffering Geul The project involves construction of four new stormwater buffers and the reconstruction of one stormwater buffer. Water retention, i.e. slowing down the runoff in these areas, serves multiple purposes. On the one hand, the measures should lead to lower flood levels in the Meuse Valley, where the risk of damage is highest. On the other hand in the catchment areas of the tributaries higher water levels may structurally be desirable. |

Regenwaterbuffers Mergelland An important component of the project is water retention in hilly areas to reduce erosion of the löss soils in this area. The objective of this project is to construct 90 stormwater buffers in Mergelland West. This will cause the water to be retained in the area for a longer time, resulting in substantially lower peak discharges in the minor rivers of the area and consequently also in the Meuse. |

Modernisation des barrages de la Haute Sambre The 12 lock-weirs of the Sambre in the province of Hainaut and notably those of the Upper Sambre are associated with problems because of their varying states of functioning. Operation of these locks is not without danger. Furthermore, the high water retention zones are unmanageable. The aim of the project is to have better control of the water levels in the ponds and retention zones as a result of quicker and easier operation of the lock-weirs. The project will compromise electrification of 36 outlets of the old weirs, and improvement of the control devices for the works which have already been modernised. Lowering of water levels: maximum local drop in water level is 100 millimetres; total drop in water levels over the length of a water course is 3000 m2. Another impact is the improvement in safety for the employees responsible for operating the hardware. |

Amélioration de la capacité d’écoulement de la Haute Meuse The aim of the project is to restore the natural flow capacity of the River Meuse between the French border and Anseremme in order to reduce the water levels during periods of high water. The project consists of renewing the two weirs at Hastière and Waulsort and dredging the two corresponding courses by partly or completely moving or removing alluvial deposits. This work will lower the water level by 30 - 80 cm during moderately high waters and will facilitate co-ordinated management of the whole of the Upper Meuse. The renewal of the works will be perfectly integrated within the environment; new nature areas will be created, other existing areas will be better protected. |

Amélioration du réseau de mesure hydrologique At present, in the Walloon region, SETHY (Hydrological study service Department) has at its disposal an integrated hydrological management tool called WACONDAH. This model is used to warn against high water in the Meuse. In the related IRMA project 3/BE/1/130, the WACONDAH model will be fine-tuned and improved. The objective of this project (3/BE/2/128) is to improve the handling of crisis situations by means of a better knowledge of the hydrological basin of the Meuse and its tributaries, by improving the existing management and warning system, and by promoting transnational message exchanges, in particular by introducing connections between operating centres. The number of people exposed to information on flood risks and the number of people warned by the improved flood warning system will be 3.000.000. Better management of the crisis will reduce pollution and will also contribute to respect for the environment. |

Renaturation de l’Alzette et de ses affluents à Steinsel et Walferderdange In 1993 and 1995 the Alzette River flooded, causing major damage to property within the municipal areas of Walferdange and Steinsel. As a result, the authorities embarked on a programme to identify and implement measures to minimise similar repercussions in the future. The objectives of the project are: improvement of the flood situation in inhabited areas by increasing the capacity for high water retention in non-critical areas, and thus reducing the extent of flooding in the inhabited areas; ecological stabilisation of the watercourse with reinforcement of natural metabolisms; enrichment of the site from a landscape point of view by creating an urban relief zone with recreational character; and promotion of the educational value of the site by encouraging the discovery and understanding of the aquatic environment and its associated ecosystems. The effects will be (among others) reduction of damage to property, risk of accident and inconvenience to inhabitants (accessibility). The new configuration will lead to water flow rates favourable to the development of aquatic life and avoid damage due to destructive erosion. |

Bakenhof (Dijkteruglegging Malburgsedam) The project 'Bakenhof' is located on the left bank of the Lower Rhine, in the city of Arnhem. The project should be seen in conjunction with the inland replacement of the Pleidijk (IJssel-dike near Westervoort), which is being carried out to maintain the water flow division between the Rhine and the IJssel rivers. By displacing the dike and restructuring the forelands, the high water can be reduced by as much as 70 mm. |

Uitbreiding Hardenberg The project will be carried out within the scope of the urban expansion of the town of Hardenberg. The area drains into the river Vecht and within the framework of tackling the high water problems on the Vecht, the Water Board has indicated that the discharge from the new residential area and industrial estate is not permitted to exceed the discharge from a similarly sized rural area. Apart from the reduction of peak levels, the purpose of the project is to create retention capacity in order to reduce the peak levels discharged from this area and to increase the infiltration in the urban area. The multi-sectoral approach, which concentrates on separating water flows and reducing overflowing, will result in a clear reduction of pollution in comparison with ’standard’ urban expansion plans. Also the construction of retention basins will reduce the damage caused by dehydration due to reduced infiltration capacity of the new urban area. |

Diessense Broek Within the Hilver land development scheme intensive efforts are being made to implement an ecological structure. The Diessense Broek project area in the catchment of the Reusel river is part of this project. The main objective of the project is to retain rainwater through water conservation in the top soil and retention on the surface. This will lead to substantial reduction in peak discharges and subsequently a reduction in flooding. The ecological objectives of the project are in line with the main objective, i.e. restoration of the flood plain, re-meandering and development of water dependent nature in the river basin. |

Marswetering This project is located close to the river Overijsselse Vecht. Until the end of the fifties, this area had a natural discharge regime, which allowed inundation to occur. During the sixties, large areas were drained to benefit the agricultural development. Retention possibilities became scarce, therefore it became almost impossible for the water system to anticipate on high water levels on the rivers IJssel and Vecht. The main objectives of this project are: to restore the natural drainage regime; to create retention possibilities; to prevent undesirable inundations; and to restore the natural water course system. Activities are: automation and modernisation of the downstream sluices and weirs, construction of retention areas, re-meandering of the Marswetering (= water course), construction of a pumping station, construction of small weirs. |

Hessenpoort This project forms part of the Overijssel Cluster, which deals with the high water problems in the province of Overijssel. The project Hessenpoort has the following specific objectives: to retain water to ensure that the peak discharge from the urban area will be below the peak discharge from a rural area of a similar size. Moreover, the following more integrated objective has been defined: to maintain, restore and develop essential characteristics and to preserve values for the benefit of the water management / sewerage system, vegetation and ecological development. Extra retention capacity will be 227.000 m3; newly developed retention area will be 0,07 km2; precipitation infiltrated into the soil will be 80-90% (a large part will infiltrate by means of the infiltration system; this will prevent any dehydration that may take place). |

Afkoppeling verhard oppervlak Zuidelijke Molenveld Doesburg The municipality of Doesburg is situated along the river IJssel. A part of the hardened area will be taken of the sewerage system by infiltrating into the ground. This results in a reduction of water flowing over the spillways into the IJssel and more retention in the area. Objectives of the project are to set an example for disconnecting hardened areas in an existing housing estate; to decrease the volume of water flowing into the IJssel; to decrease the volume of dirty water into the IJssel; to increase the retention and to get back the natural level of the ground water and to get more experience in disconnecting hardened areas by infiltration. Reduction in drainage discharge for 1 ha disconnected urban area is 3.000 m3. |

Retentie-onderzoek en Gt-trappen Gelderland This plan concentrates on reducing the lateral influx into the rivers Rhine and IJssel during critical high water situations. The following objectives have been formulated: to map possible inundation areas, where water can be retained in the basin during prolonged periods; to adjust pumping schedules to expected water levels on the river IJssel; to discuss proposed measures with the water managers in the German part of the basin; to identify any bottlenecks in the present system; to provide materials for a contingency plan and to formulate policy recommendations for the water board in respect of situations with extreme quantities of precipitation. The project consists of a number of components which all focus on identifying bottlenecks in the water system during high water situations and providing possible solutions. These solutions concentrate on the option of creating retention areas. The entire area controlled by the Rhine and IJssel Water Board (200 000 ha) will be covered by a new decision-making and management support system. In addition, areas will be designated as suitable for retention purposes. |

Gemeenschappelijke Maas in Limburg: Werken in het kader van het Maasdijken Plan These works are part of the ‘Meuse Dike plan’. Through improvement works at the winter dike in Heppeneert (Maaseik), the objectives of this plan will be satisfied: reinforcing and restructuring existing winter dikes where necessary in order to be able to stop rises of a discharge of 3,000 m3 / +0.5 m; constructing new winter dikes where flow route changes are required or where there are no dikes yet in order to protect existing developed areas. About 1 km of dikes will be strengthened. Watercourses discharging into the Meuse are closed off by a structure with anti-return valves/sluices in order to prevent the Meuse water from flowing backwards into the land side at high water. Protecting the inner dike area against flooding will have an impact on agriculture as it will strongly reduce damage to crops and agricultural land and high water. |
