Floodplain Conservation Planning

Floodplain Conservation Planning is a strategic framework within environmental planning that integrates ecological preservation, hydrological function, and land-use regulation to protect and restore natural floodplain systems, distinguishing it from conventional floodplain management by prioritizing biodiversity, ecosystem services, and long-term resilience over structural flood control or developmental expansion.
