25,000 km of rivers in the next decade through the upcoming decade? Most importantly, how are the removal of primarily obsolete barriers and those barriers to be prioritised? The study explains the methodology used for the restoration of floodplains and wetlands, the the prioritisation and the steps of the analysis European Commission gained further traction.

[...] The recovery of the ecological connectivity (more than 30 km of free-flowing river upstream and downstream) and environmental value of the area through the removal of this dam and hydroelectric facilities will benefit the natural flow of the Hozseca river.
