3. Action - To continue to invest in and support the information collection systems already developed by ICPDR
4. Action - To continue boosting major investments in building and upgrading urban wastewater treatment
facilities across the Danube Basin, including measures to build capacity at the regional and local
level for the design of such infrastructure
5. Action - To establish buffer strips along the rivers to retain nutrients and to promote alternative collection
and treatment of waste in small rural settlements
6. Action - To foster and develop an active process of dialogue and cooperation between authorities
responsible for agriculture and environment to ensure that measures are taken to address
agricultural pollution
7. Action - To legislate at the appropriate level to limit the presence of phosphates in detergents

more generally to analyse and identify the best response to flood risk (including โgreen infrastructureโ)
3. To extend the coverage of the European Floods Alert System (EFAS) system to the whole Danube river basin,
to step up preparedness efforts at regional level (including better knowledge of each other's national
systems)
