Following the acceptance by the electorate of a cantonal inititative aimed at protecting these endangered areas (Auen-Schutzpark – für eine bedrohte Lebensgemeinschaft) optimal framework conditions were put into place in 1993 to protect the remaining floodplains in the canton of Argovia. The «floodplain protection park» programme was launched which addressed such issues as areas protection, restoration of remaining waterways, the realisation of re-naturalisation projects,as well as the creation and up-keep of a floodplain protection park. The first phase of the programme will be concluded at the end of 2003. An interim assessment, using Reusstal as an example, shows that most of the goals set out in the management mandate have been reached.
