Regulatory zoning of the Cantal flood risk prevention plans

The Risk Prevention Plans (PPR) were established by the Act of 2 February 1995 on strengthening the protection of the environment. They are the key instrument of the State in the field of risk prevention. Their objective is to monitor development in areas exposed to a major risk. The PPRs are approved by the prefects and generally carried out by the departmental directorates of the territories (DDT). These plans regulate land use or land use through building prohibitions or requirements on existing or future buildings (constructive provisions, vulnerability reduction work, restrictions on agricultural use or practices, etc.). These plans may be under development (prescribed), applied in advance approved, amended or revised
