Question 7210 — water and sanitation

Summary

Mr. Stéphane Le Foll draws the attention of the Minister of State, Minister of Ecological and Inclusive Transition, to the competence of “management of aquatic environments and flood prevention” (GEMAPI) provided for in article 56 of Law No. 2014-58 of January 27, 2014 on the modernization of territorial public action and affirmation of metropolises (MAPTAM) and more particularly on what concerns flood reduction actions to upstream of urban flood-prone areas. Indeed, the GEMAPI competence created in the aforementioned law recommends that municipalities and communities come together within a basin union to develop the implementation of action plans concerning the action program to be carried out at the hydrographic scale of the watersheds. The fact that this management is recommended and not obligatory proves to be blocking when divergent interests lead municipalities to not agree on a management structure. Thus in Le Mans, the implementation of the local flood risk management strategy for the territory “significant risks of Le Mans” has not been initiated due to the absence of a “project leader”. This is why he questions what will be implemented to force municipalities and communities of municipalities to subscribe to a basin union.
