The Haybach rises in the Rheinhessen local community of Klein-Winternheim and flows from there through the district of Ober-Olm until it joins the Selz near Nieder-Olm . There are various names and spellings in circulation for the stream, e.g. Sometimes it is also referred to as Haibach or Haarbach . It was mentioned for the first time in 1576 in a description of the village and called Auff der Harbach ; on a map also from this time it was called Klein-Winternheimer Bach .

The Haybach-Halle , an annual Haybach bazaar , the annual Haybach run of the local gymnastics club, etc. were named after his most frequently used name in the region, Haybach . In some of today's maps, however, it is listed as Haibach or in others as Heilbach , this is the name used by the responsible state offices.

At the beginning of 2019, the local mayors of Klein-Winternheim and Ober-Olm, Ute Granold and Matthias Becker, announced a “communal joint project for the renaturation of the stream”.

background

The Haybach has been converted into a ditch during the land consolidation of the fifties to drain quickly to the resulting water. That was a concept that has not proven itself, so the SGD Süd (structural and approval authority) in a hearing in the local council of Klein-Winternheim in 2016.

As early as 2002 had work group environment and nature of Local Agenda Klein-Winternheim to the main problems of Haybachs attention:

  • the stream was unnaturally lowered, straightened and transformed into a "hostile" canal with concrete half-shells; In addition, a significant part of the concrete enclosure has burst over the years.
  • Original spring water is discharged into the sewer system in the village area, which is why the stream sometimes runs dry.
  • In the event of heavy rain, the wastewater with all residues such as B. "used sanitary towels" etc. in the Haybach "knocked off", d. H. the wastewater is discharged into the stream untreated.

In 2006, the Untere Selz waste water association built a rainwater retention basin near the village , which it designed to be closer to nature in cooperation with the community and the local agenda. In this area, the stream was pulled out of the concrete half-shells, placed higher again, and allowed to meander a little . The further problematic course of the stream, the lack of spring water supply and the discharge of untreated wastewater into the stream during heavy rain remained unaffected by the measure.

In 2010 a diploma thesis was written at the University of Applied Sciences Bingen in the environmental department on renaturation possibilities of the stream. The chairman of the Local Agenda, Irene Wellershoff , explained : "A renatured Haybach would be an upgrading of the landscape - for nature and animals, for the citizens and ultimately also for tourism". At that time she outlined the desirable "long-term project" of renaturation of the stream as "a green lifeline through the agriculturally used valley."

In May 2019, the local councils of Ober-Olm and Klein-Winternheim decided to pursue the goal of “upgrading the Haybach valley” and spoke out in favor of renaturing the stream. In a joint press release, the local mayors Granold and Becker declared that they wanted to tackle the sewage problem in particular and wanted to create a "Bachaue" in cooperation with the responsible authorities, farmers, nature conservationists and interested citizens. The former Alzeyer Forest Director Dr. Gerhard Hanke is coordinating the project, which is welcomed and supported by the 1st alderman of VG Nieder-Olm, Doris Leininger-Rill, who is administratively responsible for the stream. Under the title " The HAYBACH and its POTENTIAL " the Local Agenda Klein-Winternheim showed in mid-2020 in a "virtual exhibition" which possibilities for renaturation the brook offers.
