Description
Main dikes are dikes that serve to protect an area from storm surge.
Flood dikes are dikes that serve to protect an area from flooding.
Protective dikes are dikes above a barrier that serve to protect an area from water that cannot drain because of the closure of the tidal water.
Dikes of the 2. Dike lines limit flooding in the protected area if a main dike or barrier breaks.
Dikes receive their property by dedication, which the dike authority pronounces by ordinance.
The provisions of the Lower Saxony Dike Act (NDG) apply to dedicated dikes
