EIA public consultation meetings

Flood risk management plans (FRMPs) and their updates (FRMPs) are planning documents that set the framework for the implementation of projects aiming to increase flood safety in river basin areas. As these projects may have different effects on the environment, it is necessary to carry out a Strategic Environmental Assessment process before the adoption of the Plans. The forecast document contains an assessment of the impact of the planned actions under the FRMPs and the updated FRMPs on the implementation of strategic environmental protection objectives.

Public consultations on the drafts of the forecasts of the impact on the environment of the drafts of the updated flood risk management plans for the Wisła, Odra and Pregoła river basin areas and of the drafts of the flood risk management plans for the Dunaj, Niemen and Łaba river basin areas will be held for 21 days, in accordance with the provisions of Article 39 (1) (4) of the Act of 3 October 2008 on publishing information about the environment and its conservation, public participation in environmental protection and environmental impact assessments (Journal of Laws 2021, item 247 and 784). They are announced by the President of Wody Polskie. The consultations are open, which means that anyone interested can take part in them and has the right to submit comments and requests to the draft forecasts, as well as to the draft updates of the flood risk management plans and the draft flood risk management plans.

Due to the prevailing restrictions related to the epidemic situation and the uncertainty of future restrictions during the public consultation period, we have prepared online meetings.

The meetings will take place on 26th, 27th and 28th October 2021.

The information meetings will be thematically targeted on selected river basin areas and the registration for the meeting must be done at least 2 days before the scheduled date of the debate (deadlines are indicated below):
