Abstract
The document is establishing a development program for managing water-related natural hazards and avalanches. It sets out principles and measures in spatial planning to minimize risks from floods, torrents, and avalanches, emphasizing the preservation of retention and runoff areas over post-event remediation. The regulation defines hazard zones (red, yellow, rot-gelb schraffierte, blue, violet) and their restrictions, governs construction bans and exceptions in these zones and riparian strips, and provides detailed rules for land use, exemptions, and adaptation of planning instruments. It also addresses procedures for changes in local conditions due to protective measures, and sets transitional rules for ongoing proceedings. The text consists of 17 Articles.
