HomeAssessment of Second Cycle Preliminary Flood Risk Assessments and Identification of Areas of Potential Significant Flood Risk under the Floods Directive
Member State : Sweden
Publication metadata
The Floods Directive 2007/60/EC (FD) came into force in 2007. It established a framework for flood risk management (FRM) and foresees 6-yearly cycles aiming to reduce the risk of flood damage in the European Union (EU). The first cycle covered the period 2010-15. The second cycle covers the period 2016-21. The latter is also the period of implementation of the first Flood Risk Management Plans (FRMPs), which were established by the Member States (MS) at the end of the first cycle. The first FRMPs, but also the first cycle Preliminary Flood Risk Assessments (PFRAs), the Areas of Potential Significant Flood Risk (APSFRs) identified and the Flood Hazard and Risk Maps (FHRMs) were sequentially assessed by the European Commission (the Commission). During the second cycle, MS are required to have reviewed and, if necessary, updated, by 22 December 2018, their first cycle Preliminary Flood Risk Assessments. Reporting to the Commission was required to have taken place by 22 March 2019. Sweden started reporting in March 2019 and made the last entry in EIONET in August 2019. This assessment report reflects the situation as reported by the MS to the Commission before the assessment and with reference to PFRAs conducted earlier. The situation in Sweden may have altered since then.
