in groundwater

The sustainable improvement of flood prevention, flood protection and flood risk management in Dresden is a generational task. The Plan Flood Prevention Dresden (PHD), commissioned by the City Council in May 2004 and confirmed by decision of August 2010, pursues a complex, area-based and cross-water approach. The state of play of the implementation of the measures on the Elbe, on the Vereinigte Weißeritz, on the Lockwitzbach, on the second-order waters, in groundwater and in the sewage system (sewage system) is regularly updated or documented and is permanently and publicly available in the theme city map of the state capital Dresden. More than 200 individual measures, which were addressed in the text version of the flood prevention plan Dresden in the version of the decision V0431/10 of 12 August 2010 (PHD 2010), are presented in the map "Measures of the flood prevention plan 2010" (Map 4.32.2 of the Dresden Environmental Atlas, 1st edition). Those measures of the PHD 2010, which are not pursued further, are shown in grey in the map "Measures of the flood prevention plan 2010" (Map 4.32.2 of the Dresden Environmental Atlas, 1st edition).
