Description

The European Water Framework Directive promotes a new way of water management and sets ambitious goals requiring all waters to achieve a good status by 2015. The prominent tool to achieve this is the river basin management plan (RBMP) that has to contain a programme of measures summarising all measures that aim to improve impaired water bodies.
