Risks maps elaborated based on a Flood Risk Evaluation methodology elaborated by National Institute of Hydrology and Water Management and Romanian Waters National Administration
FLOOD RISK MANAGEMENT PLANS ELABORATION A. Establishment of working groups at the national level: 11 River Basins Administration (R.B.A.), National Administration Romanian Waters (N.A.R.W.) headquarters and National Institute of Hydrology and Water Management (N.I.H.W.M.) B. Organization of the working meetings dedicated to F.R.M.P. elaboration C. Organization of public debates dedicated to F.R.M.P. elaboration: public consultations (Ministry of Environment Waters and Forests), debates in academic environment (Technical University of Environment and Civil Engineering)
FLOOD RISK MANAGEMENT PLANS ELABORATION (cont.) D. Elaboration of the Framework-Methodology for Flood Risk Management Plans Development in depth consultation of the international approaches that are currently available, targeting flood risk management (UK, IR, DE, AU; ICPDR, ICPR) and with the consultant's recommendations EC - Jaspers Content of Framework Methodology for Flood Risk Management Plans Development Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 4 The concept of flood risk management The purpose and objectives of the Flood Risk Management Plan Information required for the development of Flood Risk Management Plan Structure and content of Flood Risk Management Plan at R.B.A. level E. Elaboration of the Methodology for measures priorisation
OBJECTIVES OF FLOOD RISK MANAGEMENT Flood Risk Management objectives (A) national (strategic) objectives (B) operational (specific) objectives (A) Flood Risk Management objectives - national objectives In defining the national objectives of flood risk management strategy for Romania, was taken into account the approach made by I.C.P.D.R.:
Cultural heritage Environment Social Economic (B) FLOOD RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES - OPERATIONAL OBJECTIVES Core Criteria Objectives Indicators 1 I1 Minimise the flood risk to transport infrastructure Number of transport ways (road, railway, railway stations, shipping, airports, etc.) at flood risk I2 Minimise the flood risk to economic activities Number of economic objectives at flood risk I3 Minimise the flood risk to agriculture land Surface of agricultural land exposed to flood risk 2 I4 Minimise the flood risk to life Number of inhabitants exposed to flood risk I5 I6 Minimise the flood risk to community Support the achievement and conservation of GES / GEP in accordance with W.F.D. requirements Number of social infrastructure (hospitals, schools, libraries, town halls, police stations) exposed to flood risk Number of WBs at risk of failing to GES / GEP as an effect of the hydromorphological pressures (linked to the FRM measures) 3 I7 Minimise the flood risk to protected areas for abstraction of drinking water Number of protected areas for abstraction of drinking water exposed to flood risk I8 Minimise the flood risk to objectives with potential pollution Number of areas under IED-IPPC Directive (96/61/EC), Urban Wastewater Directive (92/271/EEC) and the Seveso II Directive (96/82 / EC) exposed to flood risk 4 I9 Minimise flood risk to cultural heritage objectives Number of museums, churches and monuments exposed to flood risk

PROGRAMME OF MEASURES DEVELOPMENT FOR FLOOD RISK MANAGEMENT 0 1 Catalogue of measures Preliminary evaluation of measures (maximum) inventory of measures removal of measures that are not adequate for each A.P.S.F.R. evaluation of the remaining measures based on some core criteria identification of measures that met the 1 score criteria 4 2 3 Short list of measures centralization of measures (with a score 1) for each A.P.S.F.R. Prioritization of the flood risk management measures score based evaluation of each measure for each of the 9 objectives determining the multicriterial analysis total score for each measure Results summary of the multicriterial analysis for each measure 5 Integrated Projects
