Overview
The first cycle of the European flood directive 2007/60/EC now ends with the preparation of the flood risk management plans. Especially in alpine areas we encounter specific problems e.g. defining the particular aims, developing a catalogue of measurements or selecting specific methods for flood risk reduction. At the conference "Breaking fresh ground in protecting Alpine Environments - Flood Risk Management Plans" we want to discuss these problems and challenges by looking at specific examples from different alpine countries.
