Abstract

The paper summarizes the main results of geoecological research into the consequences of catastrophic floods on November 1, 1990 in the drainage basin of the Savinja River. This is the basis for the evaluation of sanation measures performed up to the present with the emphasis on the new approach to the flood-protection of Celje through the natural retention basin in the Lower Savinja Valley. The author is analysing the mistakes, done during regulation works along the Savinja River and its tributaries and utilisation of flood plains, what seems to contribute a great deal to the damage.
