Handreiking Voorlanden en Juridische aandachtspunten

H.K. Gilissen, W.J. van Doorn-Hoekveld &. H.F.M.W. van Rijswick - 05/04/2018 - All-Risk

Using the coastal or riverine areas next to the flood defenses may bring benefits beyond flood risk reduction but also several legal questions. Some of these questions were addressed into a decision tool that is part of the foreland guideline.
