WFD Lake Catchments 2022 Un-nested 1

Published by Environmental Protection Agency

The EU Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC) (WFD) establishes a framework for the protection, improvement and management of surface waters and groundwaters. A new lake catchment layer of unnested WFD lake catchments was delineated in 2022. For every WFD lake water body, an un-nested lake catchment was delineated from the outflow up to the next upstream WFD lake (as taken from lake waterbodies layer).
