Task Groups

Task Groups (TGs) are made up of national experts from ICPDR Contracting Parties and representatives of observer organisations. More topical than the Expert Groups of the ICPDR, Task Groups report to the Expert Groups and thereby make valuable contributions to the work of the ICPDR. Currently, there are four ICPDR Task Groups.

Task Groups

Groundwater Task Group

Reporting to the MA Expert Group, the Groundwater Task Group deals with issues related to trans-boundary groundwater bodies of Danube River Basin-wide importance and with all aspects of groundwater management in line with the implementation of EU Water Framework Directive and EU Groundwater Directive.

Nutrients Task Group

Reporting to the PM Expert Group, the Nutrients Task Group deals with the implementation of measures in line with nutrient reduction and works towards harmonising ICPDR work with EU legislation such as the Urban Waste Water Treatment (UWWT) Directive or Nitrates Directive and with agricultural policies like CAP.

Economics Task Group

Reporting to the RBM Expert Group, the Economics Task Group deals with the economic aspects of EU Water Framework Directive and Floods Directive and contributes to the development of the respective management plans.

Hydromorphology Task Group

Reporting to the RBM Expert Group, the Hydromorphology Task Group deals with aspects of hydromorphology including e.g. longitudinal connectivity, wetlands and floodplains, morphological and hydrological alterations, future infrastructure projects or sediment management.
