Development of a Sustainable Flood Disaster Management Plan for Transboundary River Basins
The paper discusses the problems emerging from disaster prevention and flood risk management on transboundary areas. The special focus is given to the flood hazard, vulnerability and risk assessment, which have strong influence on disaster and/or emergency management plans. The author discusses difficulties of harmonizing activities aiming at risk reduction and flood prevention. Considering Europe, there are still efforts to harmonise flood management on transboundary areas even though EU launched "Directive on the assessment and management of flood risks" six years ago. The aim of the Directive is to reduce and manage the risks that floods pose to human health, the environment, cultural heritage and economic activity. The overall goal of the transboundary river basins is to achieve a long term and sustainable approach for managing the risks of floods and, consequently, manage emergency situations. Obviously, there is no unique solution so the approach should be flexible enough to apprehend all particularities of national legislatives and current measures on transboundray areas. The paper systemises problems, tries to find common answers for such complex systems and proposes methodological approach for disaster response related to floods in transboundary areas.
