The Project will implement the National Water Sector Plan, ensuring elimination or mitigation of significant impacts of prevailing pressures and contributing to achieving good status of surface and marine waters in line with the Water Framework and the Marine Strategy Framework Directives. To enhance efficiency of water resource management, the Project will increase competences and consolidate experts from environmental institutions, research and NGOs. The methods of assessing the status of surface water bodies will be improved by collecting additional data and conducting scientifically based expertise. The tools and methodology for improvement of pressures and impacts analysis will be elaborated and environmental objectives for all water bodies will be set based on ecosystem services approach and cost-benefit analyses. The Project will develop, test and demonstrate measures to address all pressures deteriorating surface waters: improved nutrient management on farms, control mechanisms for reducing negative impact of hydroelectric power plants, restoration of damaged river morphology, biomanipulation to restore good ecological status of lakes, natural water retention measures to reduce urban pollution, advanced wastewater treatment technology for reducing loads of micropollutants, innovative remote sensing techniques for identification of illegal pollution, and integrated water resources management showcase for a pilot catchment. The Project will ensure transfer of the developed solutions to other risk water bodies throughout all four river basin districts (RBD) of Lithuania by creating legal framework in synergy with agricultural policy, initiating dialogue with energy sector, by methodical guidance for replication, adopting experience for transboundary RBD, international collaboration network and awareness raising. The Project has mobilised EUR 825 million of European and national funds to leverage Project’s solutions to complementary actions of the Plan. |

The main objective of the MARS project was to undertake restoration work of degraded tidal marsh along the River Schelde. Actions were foreseen at four sites, totalling 200 ha: Lippensbroek, Groene Meirsch and Kijkverdriet (Belgium) and Kaloot in the Netherlands. The most important component of this project was to reduce the erosion eating away the freshwater tidal marshes. Foreseen actions included the raising of dykes, removal of contaminated soil and restoration of tidal inlets. The project actions hoped to restore damaged habitats and to kick off the natural development of new freshwater tidal marshes which would compensate the marshes lost elsewhere. By proving the feasibility of creating new marshes, the project sought to generate a model which could be employed during future dyke-building plans, as foreseen in the Belgian Sigma Plan. The project’s efforts were expected to allow future flood control construction works to be compatible with the conservation of freshwater tidal areas. As a joint effort between public bodies in Belgium and the Netherlands, the project hoped also to provide an incentive for the elaboration of a cross-border management plan for the Schelde. |

The project to improve knowledge related to flood hazard and emergence of a flood prevention plan is led by the Brivet Watershed Union. It aims to improve the union’s knowledge of the operation of the basin, prevent flooding and reduce the vulnerability of populations by informing them and raising awareness about the risk of floods. The union is the competent community for water and aquatic management across the Brivet watershed. It has been designated “referring structure” by the SAGE Estuaire de la Loire and leader by the Regional Council. The ERDF will co-finance two studies (on the hydrological operation of the Brivet watershed and carrying out communication materials, as well as animation on the Water Regulation), the post of staff member on mission, as well as material investments and small equipment. |

The operation carried out by the RLV CA consists of conducting a technical feasibility study of a local flood alert system to intervene in support of crisis management and vulnerability reduction. Obtaining a delay in anticipation of river overflows is essential to allow mayors and managers of establishments and residents to ensure their safety and thus reduce people’s vulnerability to flooding. The operation is eligible for Action 2 of the ERDF LOIRE IOP |

The operation carried out by Orléans Métropole consists of paying particular attention to the risks of flooding by setting up programs of studies to reduce vulnerability. This will make it possible to study and propose concrete strategies to preserve and/or restore flood expansion fields by providing answers and solutions to reduce the vulnerability of certain sectors but also to better define the measures to be taken to restore and manage flood expansion areas. The operation is eligible for Action 4 of Axis 1 of the ERDF LOIRE IOP. |

GLORI-A (Global-to-Regional ICON Alpine Twin) is developing a digital twin of the earth weather system with increased resolution over the Alpine region. GLORI-A will advance modelling science and technology in order to increase horizontal resolution of weather forecasts and to provide user-tailored data. The forecasting model framework of ICON will be integrated with impact models to address crucial information needs on impacts and vulnerabilities. The twin will be used to deliver on-demand and configurable tailored forecasts of the weather for up to one week to users for decision-making and early warning. GLORI-A is the Swiss contribution to GLORI, a tri-lateral project between Germany, Italy and Switzerland. |
