This report examines the consequences of alternative policies for providing flood protection to the non-tidal branches of the Rijn and the Maas rivers in the Netherlands. It is the only English language volume in a set of volumes produced by a consortium of research organizations that conducted this policy study. It focuses on estimating the flood damage that would occur under alternative safety levels, estimating the financial costs of alternative dike improvement strategies, and assessing the impacts of alternative flood protection policies. The primary objective of the impact assessment is to look for policies that would provide a high level of safety, would not cost too much, and would preserve as much as possible of the existing landscape and natural and cultural values along the rivers.

The need for the development of basic principles which can be used as a guide in the design of spur dikes or rock groins for the regulation and improvement of rivers, and a laboratory investigation of undertaken for this purpose are discussed. The investigation was designed to determine some of the factors which affect the performance of dikes as well as factors which should be considered in the design of dikes. Also discussed is a system for evaluating the performance of dikes and for correlating laboratory and field results.
