Until now the regulation of rivers and torrents streams in Umbria has been carried out mainly by works designed to reinforce river- banks and reduce the impact of flooding. The aim was to protect nearby urban settlements and industrial areas. For some time this form of artificial control has been criticised, underlining the need to find new methods of regulation which would not only respect the natural vocation of watercourses but also the fluvial ecosystems and riverine landscapes. This paper describes two case studies of the reintroduction of flood expansion areas, a traditional flood control method developed in Umbria in the XVIIIth century. Such a technique has never been really applied due to fears of conflict between rural populations and local authorities. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
