Flood retention basin

Dam construction with aisle in the alluvial forest

Since July 2018, a dam about 350 meters long and up to seven meters high has been built in the nature reserve. The aim of the dam construction is to create the Wuhrwiesen flood retention basin . The end of the construction project is planned for December 2019. The flood retention basin is intended to prevent a flood of the century that occurred in Bühl in June 2003. It was plan noted that the construction of the retention basin predominates to protect the population of Buhl interest for the Protection of Nature. The higher nature conservation authority has granted an exemption in accordance with Section 67 (1) of the Federal Nature Conservation Act .
