Italian regulation for permitting managed aquifer recharge schemes set up and
operation
RECENT YEARS/3
In 2014, the Regional Authority of Emilia Romagna started a MAR pilot on the
Marecchia River fan using a recharge basin (old quarry) to alleviate water scarcity
in the Rimini area as results of drought periods (Severi et al. 2014).
About 2 Mm3 recharged during the experimental phase
Less than 100k € investment.
