The economy of the shelf

Water boards have been around for centuries. It is actually the oldest government organization. Traditionally started as an association of owners. From farmers in a polder who decided it was better to work together. This makes water boards the foundation of our prosperity. But we don’t really think about that nowadays. That is why the Aa and Maas water board has commissioned Triple E to map out the economic benefits of its activities and its statutory duties. This especially against the background of issues such as climate change and the Water Framework Directive. Groundbreaking study that pushes the boundaries.
