315 hectares of swimming: new bathing areas in Saxony-Anhalt!

In the heart of Saxony-Anhalt, the joy of new swimming opportunities is freshly celebrated: As of the date of December 31st, a total of 315 hectares of country area were officially shown for swimming in the region. This gratifying news brings a breath of fresh air to the leisure scene and offers residents the opportunity to use the waters of the area even more intensely. According to compact.media, the districts of Harz and Burgenlandkreis recorded the largest areas with 34 and 35 hectares.

The newly designated areas not only benefit the pleasure of the swimmers, but also contribute to general land use in Saxony-Anhalt. In total, the state government classified 45,767 hectares as waters, which opens up a considerable variety of uses. Of this total area, 24,874 hectares are eliminated on rivers, while 20,708 hectares are distributed to standing waters. This also includes 186 hectares of harbor basin, which are exemplary for the use of the water surfaces.

ecological measures in sight

But not only the designation of new bathing areas is remarkable. In Saxony-Anhalt, water development concepts (GEK) are also created to implement the European Water Framework Directive. As explained on the website of the State Office for Flood Protection and Water Management [LHW] (https://lhw.sachsen-anhalt.de/gewaesserkundes-landesdienst/gewaesser- Landesdienkzepte), these concepts aim to improve the ecological water status and to promote sustainable use of water resources.

The GEK offer the municipalities and interested areas -related foundations on which other important decisions can be based. The development of these concepts takes place, taking into account the needs and suggestions of the users and area owners concerned. The measures are designed in such a way that they are highly water -neutral or even improve flood protection.

project management and public relations

The results of the water development concepts then flow into the creation of management plans and measures programs for the important river areas Elbe and Weser, such as the [LVWA Saxony-Anhalt] (https://lvwa.sachsen-anhalt.de/das-lvwa/landwirtschaft-umwelt/wasser/wasser framework directive?tx_news_pi1%5BCurrentpage%5D=0&cha=46abc17b9039c147bf3c13a) indicates. A large number of projects are coordinated to implement these goals through active project management - because only together you achieve the good ecological potential of the waters in the region.

public relations play a crucial role in this. Brochures, leaflets and information events are part of a comprehensive plan to inform the public about the developments and their opportunities. Creative offers such as competitions and teaching materials are particularly provided for children and adolescents to raise awareness of the valuable natural habitat.

brought to the point, Saxony -Anhalt is a pioneer in terms of water use and protection! The combination of new bathing areas and clear ecological goals promises an exciting and sustainable development for the region - here every shovel earth and every drop of water is properly valued!
