What is a River Basin District and where is your nearest one

A River Basin District is:

  • a river basin, or
  • several river basins, and
  • the river basin's adjacent coastal waters.

This is the scale we use for both strategic planning and reporting to the European Commission for the Water Framework Directive.

There are eleven River Basin Districts in England and Wales. To identify which River Basin District you are interested in see the related links on the right.

National Liaison Panel for England

A national liaison panel for England has been established to complement River Basin District liaison panels.
