Project summary

Edit project overview to modify the project summary.

The Ramsbeek water body is classified as a river under the WFD system. It is an R5 category water body: slow-flowing middle/lower reach on sand. The entire Ramsbeek is managed by water authority Rijn en IJssel. The water body is located in the province of Gelderland, municipality Berkelland. It is 5,2 km long and has a catchment of 2334 hectares in the Netherlands. The Ramsbeek partly originates in Germany and also receives water from the Veengoot, which originates near the clay pits and the Zwillbrocker Venn. The total catchment area of the stream is 4152 ha, of which 1818 ha in Germany. The Ramsbeek discharges into the Berkel. Water levels are managed with one adjustable wei rand six fixed weirs. In 2013, these weirs were either made passable for fish or removed. In the Ramsbeek water body, a single maximum water level is pursued for each managed stretch, because of the fixed weirs. The water level depends on upstream discharge. Water levels are variables in the stretches with adjustable weirs. These weirs were removed in the latest plan period, when the stream was re-designed. The Ramsbeek carries water all year. Upstream parts of the waterways do not run dry during dry periods. There are no sewage treatment plants present in the catchment of the Ramsbeek.
