A Water Risk Assessment is a crucial document required in the Netherlands for various development projects, infrastructure works, and industrial operations. This assessment is particularly important given the Netherlands' geographical position, with approximately one-third of the country lying below sea level. The document is typically required during planning phases, property development, industrial operations, or when significant changes to existing water systems are proposed. The assessment must comply with Dutch water management legislation, including the Water Act (Waterwet) and relevant EU directives. It provides comprehensive analysis of water-related risks, including flooding, drainage issues, water quality concerns, and climate change impacts. The Water Risk Assessment serves as a foundation for decision-making, risk mitigation strategies, and obtaining necessary permits from water authorities.
