Resource information
The Campania Region promotes land reclamation interventions, which are considered to be of public interest since they help preserve the territory and, particularly, rural environments, and enable the rational utilization of water resources intended for agricultural uses. To these ends, the present Regional Act provides for the rearrangement of Land Reclamation Consortia and makes rules governing their functions and tasks, in compliance with the general principles laid down at national level in Act No. 183 of 1989 as well as in Act No. 36 of 1994. The Consortia shall draw up special programmes for land reclamation undertakings in accordance with article 6. In times of drought or shortage of water, priority is to be given, firstly, to human consumption and, secondly, to agricultural uses. A special Regional Counsel is set up by article 15.
