=== Flood risks ===
The Dutch strategy focuses mainly on layer 1, prevention. This region, too, counts on the safety delivered by the dikes - it is literally surrounded by dikes (dikering 16). The region tilts from east to west and is is two metres below sea level and during a flooding event the water level can rise up to 4 metres in relation to NAP (average sea level).


The calculated risk for dike ring 16 is high compared to calculated flood risks for other dikerings in the Netherlands ({{Cite|resource=Bestand:Veiligheid-nederland-in-kaart-2-overstromingsrisico-dijkringgebied-16-alblasserwaard-en-de-vijfheerenlanden.pdf|name=Vergouwe et al., 2014|dialog=process-file-dialog}}).
