Maximum water levels of the Mur river were recorded twice in the last 10 years, in 2005 and 2014. As climate change is expected to result in even more extremes it is necessary to improve the flood defence system within the proposed project Frisco 2. 2. Its common challenge is to improve environmental conditions and to adopt to climate change by the construction / reconstruction of the high-water embankments to protect the Benica and Sveti Martin na Muri settlements and its inhabitants from flood risk. In Benica settlement the measure will reduce floodplains on agricultural land by 96ha and protect additional 3,2 km of local municipal roads as well as 28 houses with agricultural buildings, in total 95 people, while also considering the flooding of Ledava. Furthermore, in Sveti Martin na Muri the high-water embankment will defend from a 100-year flood in total 62 structures (family houses and farm buildings, football stadium), 200 people living there and approx. 45 ha of agricultural land. The reduction of flood risk in the river basin is treated comprehensively within FRISCO 1 project and the detailed description of the stated locations is presented in the study draft “Definition of alternative solutions - Phase 1”. A comprehensive hydrological hydraulic study of the Mur River Basin will be elaborated, which will define the necessary measures to reduce the threat of populated and urbanized areas from the harmful effects of waters. The project will contribute to the overall programme SO "Flood risk reduction in the transboundary Mura river basin through application of a structural flood risk management measure" as the main project outputs directly reduces the share of transboundary river basins under flood risk (5b4). Cross-border cooperation is vital as any flood risk reduction measure on a transboundary river needs to be bilaterally coordinated to avoid one-sided approaches that could endanger the other side.
