River Basin Management Plans

River basin management plans are strategic documents that outline how to sustainably manage and protect the water resources within a river basin—a specific area of land where all the water drains into a common waterway. These plans address issues like water quality, flood prevention, biodiversity, and the needs of communities relying on the water. The goal is to balance environmental health with human activities, ensuring that rivers remain healthy and accessible for future generations while supporting agriculture, recreation, and industry. Collaboration among stakeholders, including governments, businesses, and local communities, is essential for effective management.
