Sustainable River Basin Management demands a basin wide cooperation as rivers
form ecological units with their catchments. Pressures and water uses can have
an impact on the water quality across the border. Therefore, in the River Basin
Commission Weser all seven regional states (Laender), which have a share of the
Werra, Fulda, Weser and Jade catchment areas and their tributaries, have joined:
Bavaria,
Bremen,
Hesse,
Lower Saxony,
North Rhine-Westphalia,
Saxony-Anhalt and
Thuringia.
Main task is the implementation of the Water Framework Directive. In 2003, the RBC Weser has emerged from the Arbeitsgemeinschaft zur Reinhaltung der Weser (ARGE Weser; Project Group Weser River Cleanliness) which was founded in 1964.In the management office of the River Basin Commission Weser the common tasks are coordinated.
