organisation profile

As of 1.1.2005 the NLWKN is an amalgamation of different predecessor organisations, making Lower Saxony the first of Germany´s federal states to consolidate water management and nature conservation in a joint body. There are 11 regional offices in 15 stations all over the country, allowing for consideration of regional aspects. The Division 1 - operation & maintenance, hazardous substances, abatement - is required to supervise and maintain more than 1000 km of water courses and canals, part of which are owned by the state.. A special aspect of environmental protection is the abatement of sea-borne emergencies with oil and other hazardous substances.
