Effective management of water represents especially the efficient use of water resources, with minimization of losses in obtaining, conditioning, distribution and consumption of water. It includes a high-quality sewage treatment process and maximum possible use of rainwater. An important part is to ensure the flood protection of the city of Brno.
The main benefit of efficient water management is the long-term maintenance and development of today's obvious comfort in the case of the use of high-quality drinking water, increasing the use of rainwater, sufficient flood protection and high-quality wastewater treatment.
Professor of Water Management, Landscape Engineering and Environment at the Mendel University in Brno and the Brno University of Technology.
