Possibilities of Influencing the Impact of Regulatory and Protective Water Constructions in the Water Ecosystem

U dosadašnjoj praksi gradnje obaloutvrda najveći naglasak se stavljao na ispunjavanje njihovih primarnih funkcija - regulacijske i zaštitne. Za ove zahvate provode se postupci procjene utjecaja na okoliš i ekološku mrežu, no kako se s promišljanjem o mjerama zaštite i ublažavanja negativnih utjecaja najčešće kreće tek u fazi procjene utjecaja zahvata, dolazi do znatnog usporavanja realizacije projekata koji su od velike važnosti za zaštitu života i imovine ljudi. Ovim radom prikazat će se metode i primjeri dobre prakse u projektiranju i gradnji obaloutvrda s uključenim interdisciplinarnim pristupom – suradnjom građevinara, biologa i krajobraznih arhitekata. Predstavljene su i mjere ublažavanja negativnih utjecaja zahvata na ekološku mrežu na primjeru planirane izgradnje nasipa i obaloutvrda na lijevoj obali Kupe od naselja Selce do Rečice.In the standard practice of revetment building, the emphasis has been put on the fulfillment of their primary functions - regulatory and protective. Environmental and ecological network impact assessment procedures are being carried out for these projects. Due to the fact that consideration of measures for protection and mitigation of negative impacts usually starts at the stage of impact assessment, there is a significant slowdown in the implementation of projects of major importance for the protection of life and people’s property. This paper presents examples of good practice in the design and construction of revetments with included integrated approach – collaboration of civil engineers, biologists and landscape architects. Measures for mitigation negative impact on ecological network for planned project of revetment and embankment construction on the left bank of Kupa River from Selce to Rečica are also presented
