Confronted with government plans for using their polder for water retention during peak river discharges, they took the initiative to redesign their polder to make it suitable for water retention in a way that also made possible continuation of their agricultural enterprises.

  • Activities in the Area of Dressuurstal Van Baalen
    Activities in the area of Dressuurstal Van Baalen With this document we would like to inform you with the many activities and restaurants in the surrounding of Dressuurstal Van Baalen. Castle Loevestein Loevestein Castle is situated at a unique location where the river Meuse and Waal join together and the provinces of Gelderland, Brabant and South Holland meet. It was here, in this typically Dutch river landscape, that the knight Dirc Loef van Horne built his castle in 1361. His choice, however, was not determined by the area's outstanding beauty, but by its strategic position. It was the ideal location to defend and from which to levy tolls, and that is exactly what happened. Loevestein Castle is a unique spot where nature and culture unite as one.

  • 3 Betuwse Bloem
    3Betuwse bloem Eric Poot, Sietze Vellema Abstract The transition programme Betuwse Bloem was carried out to enhance economic and sustainable development of the horticulture sector in the River Area in the province of Gelderland, the Netherlands. Horticulture in the River Area takes place in five highly specialised clusters, separated both spatially and organisationally. The premise at the start of the public-private initiative of Betuwse Bloem was that uniting the clusters will lead to synergy and a powerful competitive area. This should be rewarded with the Dutch Greenport Status. On an institutional level the question arises if and how juxtaposed living and working professionals commit themselves to the ambitions of overarching Betuwse Bloem. 3.1 River Area ‘Betuwse Bloem’ (Flower of Betuwe) is the name for a programme with the aim to stimulate horticulture in the River Area (‘Rivierengebied’) in Gelderland, the Netherlands (Figure 1). Figure 1 Location of the River Area in the Province of Gelderland in the Netherlands The River Area lies roughly between Gorinchem in the west and Nijmegen in the east. It is embedded between the Rhine and Waal rivers and the A12 and A15 motorways. Together with the Betuwe Lijn railway, these rivers and motorways form a cluster of important west-east connections for the supply of European markets, especially Germany. Horticulture is a relatively important economic sector. The Rhine, Waal and also Linge rivers shaped the landscape, and for very long time horticulture has been WUR Nota 2015-016 |23 practised on the fertile banks of these rivers. The rivers are also important transport routes.

J.C Bossenbroek (Oranjewoud) Opdrachtnemer Rijkswaterstaat Waterdienst Uitgevoerd door Combinatie DHV, Oranjewoud en Tauw Opdrachtgevers Ministerie van Infrastructuur en Milieu, Unie van Waterschappen en Interprovinciaal Overleg Voorwoord In dit rapport worden de resultaten gepresenteerd van de uitgevoerde risicoanalyse voor dijkring 38: Bommelerwaard. Het detailniveau van de uitgevoerde analyses is afgestemd op de primaire doelstelling van VNK2: het verschaffen van een beeld van het overstromingsrisico en de effectiviteit van mitigerende maatregelen. Hoewel dit rapport een beeld geeft van de veiligheid van dijkring 38 dient het niet te worden verward met een toetsrapport in het kader van de Waterwet. De in VNK2 berekende overstromingskansen laten zich niet zondermeer vergelijken met de wettelijk vastgelegde overschrijdingskansen van de waterstanden die de primaire waterkeringen veilig moeten kunnen keren. Door de provincie Gelderland zijn de overstromingsberekeningen uitgevoerd die ten grondslag liggen aan de berekende gevolgen van de overstromingsscenario’s. De beheerders hebben een essentiële bijdrage geleverd door gegevens ter beschikking te stellen en de plausibiliteit van de opgestelde (alternatieve) schematisaties te bespreken. De uitgevoerde analyses zijn zowel intern getoetst als extern. Ten slotte zijn de resultaten besproken met het Expertise Netwerk Waterveiligheid (ENW) en heeft het ENW de kwaliteit van de analyses en rapportages steekproefsgewijs gecontroleerd.

Introduction, town gate impressions 1.1 The oldest town gate of Gouda Town in Holland, the Tiendewegpoort (Tithe Road Gate) seen from the east, in about 1850. The brick defence walls, once left and right from the gate, have been demolished before 1840. The old Tithe Road Gate was multifunctional. It was an access to town and it housed the local women’s prison. This “gate prison” was a spinning house in which female convicts were forced to do hard labour. Behind the trees, left from the gate, a large building, the Arsenal, is visible. The Arsenal premises were the training-grounds where the local militia was being drilled. The gate itself was demolished in 1854, the militia building still exists.

Societies, too, must retain the ability to discriminate, to reject as well as to accept, to value some things above others, and to insist 6 on the acceptance of those values by all their members. [...] If we are to build a plural society on the foundation of what unites us, we must face up to what divides. But the questions of core freedoms and primary loyalties can’t be ducked. No society, no matter how tolerant, can expect to thrive if its citizens don’t prize what their citizenship means – if, when asked what they stand for as Frenchmen, as Indians, as Britons, they cannot give clear replies.
