1 Natural Water Retention Measures DG Environment Water Unit Lucia Bernal Saukkonen GIIR WORKING GROUP
2 Current activities on NWRM Within the CIS: EU Policy document on NWRM Pilot project: Integration of Natural Water Retention Measures in River Basin Management
3 Agreed WG PoM Deliverable A short Policy Document aiming: To explain the policy relevance of NWRM, stimulate their uptake as effective means for achieving water and other environmental policy objectives. To be used as tool by water directors to persuade other policy makers for joined action Targeting Water Directors and decision-makers at the National Competent Authorities for WF/FD and local and regional catchment-scale decision-makers. Ensure coherence with tools and documents of the NWRM pilot project. The project will be providing the knowledge base, experiences, technical background and practical guidance tools to complement this document.
4 The policy document what will you find in? Executive summary What is the aim and target group of the policy document? What can you achieve with NWRM? (types of measures and expected benefits) Which policy relevance of NWRM? (=> WFD, FD, other Environmental Policy, Agriculture Policy...) Making NWRM operational: some recommendations Conclusions The final version sent to Water Directors for the Nov
5 Recommendations to stimulate implementation of NWRM Make policy coordination truly operational Give more attention to land use planning in water management Mobilise and combine financial resources Raise awareness and strengthening the knowledge base and exchange of best practices on NWRM.
6 Definition of NWRM NWRM are multi-functional measures that aim to protect and manage water resources and address water-related challenges by restoring or maintaining ecosystems as well as natural features and characteristics of water bodies using natural means and processes. main focus is to enhance and preserve the water retention capacity of aquifers, soil, and ecosystems with a view to improve their status. The application of NWRM supports green infrastructure, improves or preserves the quantitative status of surface water and groundwater bodies, and can positively affect the chemical and ecological status of water bodies by restoring or enhancing natural functioning of ecosystems and the services they provide. The preserved or restored ecosystems can contribute both to climate change adaptation and mitigation.
7 NWRM Pilot Project ( to build the knowledge base on NWRM, to provide a detailed assessment of effectiveness, costs and benefits of NWRM to further develop and maintain a catalogue of measures and case studies and associated database with geographical references to promote knowledge and best practice exchange: To contribute to WFD CIS and to identify / create operational tools that can be used at national, river basin, and/or local level to facilitate inclusion of NWRM in the RBMPs and FRMPs. Main Deliverables: Practical Guide, Knowledge Database, Building a community of practise (by December 2014) 11 partners: OIEau (FR), ACteon (FR), AMEC (UK), SRUC (SC), REC (HU), IACO (CY), Enveco (SW), REKK (HU), Imdea (SP), SLU (SE), BEF (LV)

15 High efficiency of these 4 measures on runoff storing and slowing No or little efficiency of this set of measures on habitat creation or on climate mitigation
16 Next steps Finalisation and dissemination of deliverables and results of the Pilot project. Continue building on the knowledge base, exchange of experience Further work under the CIS of the WFD: WG PoM. Elaboration of Guidelines on measures? Continue streamlining NWRM with GI and Restoration activity and soil/ forest /agriculture Access to funding.
