Domain Public Fluvial (DPF) — Water courses with state management — Hautes-Pyrénées
Description
Article L 2111-7 of the General Code of Property of Public Persons lists navigable or floating watercourses.
These rivers belong to the river public domain and are also referred to as domanial watercourses.
Their maintenance is therefore the responsibility of the State unless it grants management and therefore maintenance to the regions or departments.
The State has an obligation to maintain the public river domain and must maintain the proper flow of water.
The federal watercourse therefore belongs to the State; riparian owners must bear a tow and walk easement.
For the Hautes-Pyrénées department, the Garonne and part of the Neste, have the status of federal watercourses.
The state portion of the Neste, extends from the department boundary 65/31, at the confluence with the Garonne, for the downstream limit, and the bridge of Aguseau, located on RD 929, upstream.
These domanial watercourses are natural streams, removed from the nomenclature of inland waterways, but maintained in the public river domain.
