Vision and policy

Safe living, working and recreation below sea level makes less sense than you might think. Flood prevention also involves a lot. And how about making sure there is enough clean, fresh water? We make these "self-evident things" possible, in the service of society.

But the climate is changing, sea levels are rising and soils are falling. For Hollands Noorderkwartier this can have major consequences. How will we handle water management in our area in the future? Together with municipalities, interest groups, citizens and the province we have made choices for the themes of water safety, flooding and sufficient clean, fresh water: the Delta Vision.

The Delta Vision has been translated into a Water Plan (WBP6) for the medium term. In it we present our course for the period 2022-2027 and the tasks we are working on ourselves and with others. We build on our regional Delta Vision (2012), the Water Program 2016-2021 (WBP5) and our College Program 2019-2023. You can find the water plan at waterplanhhnk.nl. You can also download it as a pdf below.
