Floods, shores and water protection
Flood areas at four probabilities, flood risk areas, the shore building exclusion, restriction and water protection zones, the public shore path, drinking-water source protection zones, groundwater protection, the nitrate-vulnerable zone and water body status. The building exclusion zone width comes from the Act (LKS § 38).
