WFD water bodies in the Hunze en Aa's water authority region. The Zeegserloopje is part of the Drentse Aa water body.

Project summary

Edit project overview to modify the project summary.

The Zeegserloopje is a tributary of the Drentse Aa, which has a generally good or average ecological condition. In order to improve ecological conditions and meet WFD criteria, the mowing regime in the Zeegserloopje was altered.

Monitoring surveys and results

Edit project overview to modify the Monitoring survey and results.

Hydrological and ecological parameters are regularly monitored. This includes water levels, discharges, bed profiles, terrestrial biodiversity, water quality and macroinvertebrate numbers. The new mowing regime increases the inundation risk of upstream areas, which are mitigated by local mowing.
