In order to draw up the Flood Risk Management Plans, in Romania have been identified two types of objectives: strategic and operational. In defining the strategic objectives of flood risk management for Romania, the approach agreed at the Danube Commission (ICPDR) was taken into consideration.

In order to facilitate / structural and non-structural measures selection for 11 River Basin Authorities from Romania, a catalogue of potential measures at national level was elaborated. The proposed measures are following main areas of action closely linked to the cycle of flood risk management: Prevention, Protection, Preparedness, Awareness and Recovery. The paper presents the objectives of flood risk management established in Romania, associated indicators and nationwide catalogue of potential measures. At the same time a case study is presented on potential measures proposed at the level of basin
