| description | Directive 2000/60/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 October 2000 establishing a framework for Community action in the field of water policy and Directive 2007/60/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 October 2007 on the assessment and management of flood risks are basic regulations in the field of flood protection at the EU level. Serbia is currently in the process of harmonization of legal regulations in this field. The paper analyzes three phases of flood management envisaged in the Floods Directive, as well as their application in some European countries and Serbia. The problems that have arisen in the implementation process are considered, with special emphasis on the issues related to the development and implementation of flood hazard maps and flood risk maps as well as the practices of different countries regarding their use, particularly in the field of spatial and urban planning and insurance. The implications of applying these maps in Serbia are currently uncertain. The question is to what extent and in which areas they will be used. The analysis of their usage in individual countries, provided in this paper, can be a starting point when considering different solutions and possibilities for their integration into the domestic system. In addition to national flood risk mitigation measures, international cooperation in this area is also very significant. For this reason, one part of the paper focuses on international agreements on water management, which are important for Serbia and contain provisions on flood-related issues. |
