[AERMC] Classified water courses — List 1 — on the Rhône-Mediterrannée basin

Description

Since 1 January 2014 the old classifications “reserved watercourses” taken in implementation of the Energy Act 1980 and “Registered to Migratory Watercourses” application of Article L.432-6 of the Environmental Code have become obsolete. The Law on Water of 31 December 2006 introduced two new types of classification which are substitute for these old classifications by allowing their application to be extended to the whole works hindering ecological continuity. Article L.214-17-I of the Environmental Code and its implementing articles R.214-107 to 110 the Environmental Code defines these classifications: List 1: These are streams on which no new works can be authorised, or granted if it hinders ecological continuity. List 2: These are rivers on which it is necessary to ensure adequate transport sediment and/or movement of migratory fish. On the Rhône-Mediterranée basin, the list of rivers referred to in 1° I of Article L. 214-17 of the Environmental Code was established by prefectural decree of 7 October 2013. This data set is a graphic representation of this list 1. Of a from a legal point of view, only the literal list of watercourses set out in the Annex to the Order is authentic.
