The National System for Environmental Protection SNPA participates in the Neiflex program

From 5 to 9 June 2018 will be provided exercise and special edition of the non-risk campaign (in the Veneto and Friuli Venezia Giulia Regions). Neiflex - North Eastern Italy Flood Exercise - is a European project co-funded by the European Commission and dedicated to the hydraulic risk management. The Program highlights the need to contrast the significant growth of natural disasters, which are increasingly frequent and with consequences that require complex management, even in the long term. The exercise has as its object the management and response to a hypothetical scenario characterized by a strong vulnerability.

The scenario foresees the flooding of the main fluvial systems - Livenza and Tagliamento - that cross the Friuli Venezia Giulia and Veneto regions. In this context, the SNPA provides scientific technical support, assured by ARPA Friuli Venezia Giulia and ARPA Veneto for  the management of requests received from the Municipal Operational Centers (COC), taking action for the sampling and analysis part, while the National Center for crises, environmental emergencies and ISPRA's damage will be present at the National Operative Committee providing technical support and informational connection at national level
