| The objective of the project consists in planning and steering
public and private works oriented to manage the sources of pollutants flowing into
Sellustra river. The aim is to demonstrate the integrated application of "constructed
wetlands", "buffer strips" and "bioengineering" on basin scale
and to evaluate their effectiveness in improving river water quality, through the control
of point/non point pollution and soil erosion, as well as in landscape remediation.
The purpose is to join
productive activities (included farming) with environmental safeguard and sustainable
development.
The Life demonstrative
project is mainly of interest of officers and Public Administrations and is aimed to
produce an useful "model" for planning remediation projects following a bottom
– up strategy that can be reproduced in others geographical areas. For this reason
there will be a great effort in the dissemination activity in Italy and Europe. |
