The use of specific sites has generated robust tools and recommendations
that will be vital in both the implementation of the WFD, and
in the wise use of floodplains in general. The main results
have been developed into simple guidance notes that will form

background papers and technical reports are available on this
website.
The guidance
notes provide a starting point for thinking about the wise use

They should benefit decision-makers, planners, regulators and
land water mangers. Each guidance note is a summary of a detailed
Technical Report.
