Who draws up the risk map?
Quite a number of parties are involved in drawing up the risk map, namely: the State, provinces and municipalities, security regions, emergency services and water boards. As regards the municipalities, the most important contributing parties are the fire brigade and the environmental services.
The provinces create and administer the risk maps for the inhabitants. That is a statutory duty of the provinces. The data originates from the municipalities, the State and the provinces themselves. In order to develop the risk map, the provinces cooperate with municipalities, the Ministry of Infrastructure and the Environment and the Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations.
