Flood Risk Directive (FRD)

Description

Flood Risk Directive contains the most up-to-date version of areas with Potentially Significant Flood Risk and Historic Floods. The historical floods are floods that have had significant negative effects on human health, the environment, cultural heritage and economic activity. The flood risk is derived from the report 'Flood risks in the Netherlands'. Preliminary flood risk assessment and identification of areas with potentially significant flood risk under the European Flood Risk Directive (FRD). The areas have been designated on the basis of the following principles: Areas are distinguished according to the four separate river basin districts; Areas are subdivided into the four types (A, B, C, D) of flooding that reflect the difference in protection, as well as the diversity in responsibilities and roles of relevant governments; The delimitation of the areas shall be based on the extreme limits of the potentially floodable area, as determined on the basis of simulations from the national flood database. For the primary flood defences, the area has been extended to the high ground line. The Rijkskanaaldijken are part of the designated areas. A total of 14 GPSOR are awarded in the Netherlands. Areas of Type D do not occur in the Ems and Scheldt basins. There are areas that can flood both from the main water system (B) and the regional water system (C).
