Regulation works on the Danube river on km 1,323 (Sotin)
Start date: Dec 31, 2010, End date: Dec 30, 2016 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The Danube River near the village of Sotin at 1322 km threatens the removal extremely dilapidated right coastline which might result in the undermining and collapse of a high bank on which is the village and the local church. Beside the village, with the removal of the coast, the Danube would directly endanger the archaeological site of the old Roman settlement.Examining the cartographic displays and by inspecting the situation on the ground can be seen as a considerable expansion flowing profile. Erosion of the right side has the effect of increasing width and decreasing the depth of flow profiles of the river. This phenomenon negatively reflects on the conditions of navigation which is substantially at lower water levels.The Danube River on the its journey through Croatia fits fairway VIc international class and is related to the time necessary to provide the required dimensions for navigation.It is also necessary to add, that if it comes to the removal of the coast it will also influence the river flow which is not negligible in relation to the border issues with Republic of Serbia and the international waterway of the Danube.ObjectivesThis project would prevent the formation of sandbars, which are an obstacle for navigation while simultaneously protecting the coast from collapsing.
