Potential changes in the use of the river are generally considered only from the point of view of safety or the interests of shipping, while the river is seen as the supplier of water as a human resource, the producer of 'white coal' or as a sewer for discharging waste materials.
The Rhine and its tributaries are the backbones and the lifeline of the river basin.
In the central section of the river basin, projects are now being carried out both to increase safety by widening and deepening the river bed and to promote ecological recovery by designing specific types of environment.
