Strengthening Regional Cooperation in Meteorology, Hydrology and Climate Services Overview Introduction on the Sava River Basin Framework Agreement on the Sava River Basin (FASRB) and the International Sava River Basin Commission (ISRBC) FASRB and Water Risk Management in the Sava River Basin Summary

Strengthening Regional Cooperation in Meteorology, Hydrology and Climate Services Sava River Basin –Area: km 2 (the second largest Danube sub-basin; share: 12%) –Average flow at the mouth: 1722 m 3 /s (the largest Danube tributary; contribution: 25%) –River length: 940 km (594 km of which is the waterway) –Population: approx. 8.5 million CountryShare of the basin (%) Share of the territory (%) Albania Bosnia & Herzegovina Croatia Montenegro Serbia Slovenia

Strengthening Regional Cooperation in Meteorology, Hydrology and Climate Services

Natural basis for cooperation (high environmental and socio- economic value of the Sava river) -Natural beauty -Large retention capacity -High biological and landscape diversity -High potential for different forms of water use (navigation, hydropower, water supply, recreation and tourism) - FASRB - Protocols to FASRB - Declaration of the 2 nd MoP - MoUs with ICPDR and DC - EU directives ISRBC (Strategy on FASRB implementation) Sustainable development of the region (Legal) framework for cooperation (recognition of the environmental and socio-economic value of the Sava river) Engine of cooperation Key objective of cooperation IMPLEMENTATION OF PROJECTS Outline of the approach Strengthening Regional Cooperation in Meteorology, Hydrology and Climate Services

FASRB Key objective: Transboundary cooperation for sustainable development of the region Particular objectives: –To establish an international regime of navigation –To establish sustainable water management –To prevent/limit hazards (floods, droughts, ice and accidents) and reduce/eliminate their negative consequences

Strengthening Regional Cooperation in Meteorology, Hydrology and Climate Services FASRB Implementation coordinated by the ISRBC (BA, HR, RS, SI) Fields of work of the ISRBC –Issues of sustainability: Improvement of water quality and protection of water quantity Protection of aquatic ecosystem Protection against the harmful effects of water (due to floods, ice, droughts, accidents) –Development activities: Different kinds of water use (navigation, hydropower, water supply, irrigation, recreation, tourism) Broadest scope of work among European river commissions

Strengthening Regional Cooperation in Meteorology, Hydrology and Climate Services River Basin Management Preparation of the Sava RBM Plan (EU WFD) –Sava River Basin Analysis Report Comprehensive nature First GIS maps of the basin Available on the web-site –Further preparation of the Plan with the technical assistance financed by EU Protocol on Sediment Management Protocol on Transboundary Impact Climate Change Adaptation Plan for the Sava River Basin

Strengthening Regional Cooperation in Meteorology, Hydrology and Climate Services Flood Management Preparation of the Sava FRM Plan (EU Flood Directive) –Protocol on flood protection to the FASRB (signed in 2010) –Hydrological model of the SRB and the hydraulic model of the SR –Flood hazard and flood risk mapping
