Description
The hydrographic division is the set of four hierarchical partitions of the French territory made according to decreasing hydrographic areas:
- hydrographic region (1st order),
- hydrographic sector (2nd order),
- hydrographic subsector (3rd order),
- hydrographic zone (4th order).
A hydrographic region is divided into a maximum of 10 sectors.
The list of hydrographic regions was adopted in Circular No. 91-50 of 12 February 1991 but the determination of their limits is the responsibility of the Water Agencies.
