Macro Emergencies
The main emergencies that afflict the lagoon and its historical settlements, at this stage of completion of the high tide defense system, is the wave motion caused by wind and water traffic, the destruction of the seabeds by illegal fishing, pollution and the loss of residing population which increases the need to preserve the area’s historical buildings from ruin and abandonment, as people gradually move away from the historic town centers and the islands of the lagoon. Buildings and historic centers are also subject to the pressure of the touristic load which risks becoming unsustainable. A set of common guidelines have been established for each macro emergency, which the subjects responsible for the Site will have to respect when planning their territory and implementing the operations for its transformation.
