Execute measures at flood protection structures and the drainage system before and immediately after an event
Organisational precautions as well as emergency measures are taken immediately after an event in order to guarantee the functionality of structures that aim at the protection against pluvial flooding (e.g. removal of debris and mud).
Synergies may exist between heavy rain risk management measures and other development goals like environmental protection, health care, and economic performance. Harnessing them requires involvement of different actors, enforcement of exchange between you and them and holistic thinking.
