Geoengineering conditions of the environmental protection facilities in the centre of the Oder River

摘要

The ongoing management of river valleys has had a negative impact on the effectiveness of flood protection of former floodplains. The risk of flooding and flood damage is constantly increasing. As a result of disorganized industrialization, we are dealing with the accumulation of precipitation which flows much faster from the catchment area to the main river. In turn, due to erosion and the sedimentation processes, the capacity of the main river bed and its tributaries is limited. The solution to the problem may be multidirectional flood control measures, which were designed for the Lubuskie part of the Oder River, from Nowa Sól to Milsko. They concern: the construction of a flood wall in Nowa Sól, the modernization of the flood embankments in the Nowa Sol area and reconstruction of the former floodplain in Milsko. The paper presents the geoengineering conditions of these projects.
