Possible restoration, rehabilitation and mitigation measures
- Reduce undesired sediment input
- Improve continuity of sediment transport
- Manage dams for sediment flow
- Ensure minimum flows
- Establish environmental flows / naturalise flow regimes
- Increase flood frequency and duration in riparian zones or floodplains
- Shorten the length of impounded reaches
- Remove barrier
- Manage sluice and weir operation for fish migration
- Remove sediments
- Retain floodwater
- Improve backwaters
- Isolation of water bodies
