• steep and technical constructed riverbanks
• weirs, dams, subterraneous canalisations
• waste in the riverbed, perception as a sewage water cloaca
• not cognizable as natural habitat
Obstacle for development of settlement and traffic
Passability and other morphological demands were unknown
Basic mental settings with starting the project –
percepted situation in the urban districts

• Historical mining industry with silver ore washery
• Extreme heavy metall contamination of the stream sediments
• Straightening of the streams since the middle ages (and even older), drainage systems
• Use of water power (watermills)
• Danger of flooding
Historical use, existing customary laws, local behaviour patterns and the above-mentioned negative consequences influence the perception and behaviour

In summertime almost weekly publications
![Page 25: An educational project for supporting the implementation of the Water Framework Directive (WFD)](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56814944550346895db68fba/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Very slowly progress in the beginning
Difficulties and handling
Patronage of the administation department
Assumption of costs by the department of environment
Coming in conformity with requirements of the course of instructions (syllabus)
Arranging the organisational matters
Realize an effective operation
![Page 26: An educational project for supporting the implementation of the Water Framework Directive (WFD)](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56814944550346895db68fba/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Mental modification
Impressions
Accumulated demand – students loking forward to the projekt
Themes about „water“ are interesting
Cognition of the importance of water-themes and management on the part of the administration departement
Work out a curriclum with a whole basic school
Periodical labs with the third class level
Waterthemes are sometimes in local newspaper
Statement in „Nachhaltigkeitsbericht der Stadt Wiesloch“
![Page 27: An educational project for supporting the implementation of the Water Framework Directive (WFD)](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56814944550346895db68fba/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Demands of the WFD - structural shift
Impressions - changes?
Cleaning of the boundary; sometimes with bad letters to the editor because of waste in the stream
a fish-die-off was discussed in the papers
Administration gained access to the the stream very close to the inner city
Plans about urban renaturalisation and floodprotection are in work
• waste in the riverbed, perception as a sewage water cloaca
• not cognizable as natural habitat
• steep and technical constructed riverbanks
![Page 28: An educational project for supporting the implementation of the Water Framework Directive (WFD)](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56814944550346895db68fba/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Demands of the WFD - structural shift
Impressions - changes?
There are plans to destroy weirs of mills
There are plans to construct heeps of dams in the floodplain (flood protection management) - Conflict between renaturalisation and technical flood protection management
One was opened with a great succes;
A big one causes massive technical flood protection
• weirs
• dams
• subterraneous canalisations

Position & Limits
For some reasons (financial matter & social peace) it is not part of the public agenda to give detailed knowledge to the demands of the WFD

To coact and work out solutions with the administration departement (partizipation) depends on the intention of the administration and (different) interests.
Influence the interest and decisions of political persons being in charge is not evaluable.
