Abstract
The paper describes the multifunctional approach to planning within catchments which is being developed by the National Rivers Authority (NRA) of England and Wales. Formed in 1989, the NRA is responsible for the management of water resources and the regulation of water quality in both inland and coastal waters. The NRA also has the operational duty to protect people and property against flooding from both rivers and the sea. Other functions include fisheries, navigation and the aquatic aspects of conservation and recreation. (See Table 1 for NRA Mission Statement and Aims).
