ICPDR and ISRBC. Also, long-term objective of the project is to
facilitate poverty alleviation and enhance national economic
development, through reduction of flood damages. The specific
objective of the Project is to prepare flood hazard and flood
risk maps, which will be incorporated in Flood Risk Management
Plans for the Project area (preparation of FRMP is the
responsibility of Beneficiaries). |

Technical
assistance in the preparation and implementation of the Sava
River Basin Management Plan, (EuropeAid/128277/C/SER/Multi). The
project is to facilitate the approximation to the EU
environmental acquis especially in the field of water through
the identification of priority objectives common to the
Beneficiaries (HR, RS, BA, ME) as a whole and by encouraging a
more strategic focus to the use of available financing and
ensuring coordinated action between all planning and financial
instruments operating in the region, in particular as regards
integrated river basin management according to the WFD (also
including navigation, hydropower, flood prevention and
agriculture). The project: (a) provides support and assistance
to the Sava Commission and the Beneficiaries in preparing and
starting to implement an integrated River Basin Management Plan
(RBMP); (b) develop the necessary capacities and information
base to prepare an integrated RBMP for the Sava River Basin (SRB),
in close coordination with other international donors and the
authorities of Slovenia; (c) facilitate coordination of the
water-related support projects in the SRB, both on national and
regional level, in order to ensure consistency and synergies of
planning and financing of other policy developments (e.g.
navigation, hydropower, agriculture, flood protection). |
