Province of Overijssel: compensation for damages with a groundwater extraction or water infiltration permit

For certain activities you need to draw water from under the ground. This is called groundwater extraction. For other activities you may want to release water into the ground. This is called infiltration. For extraction and infiltration you need permission from the central government, the water board, or the municipal or provincial authorities. Or you will need to notify the authorities.

The eligibility conditions for compensation include:

  • You are the holder of a permit to abstract groundwater or to infiltrate water.
  • Your permit has been withdrawn in whole or in part, or the its conditions have been amended.
  • As a result of this amendment or withdrawal, you have suffered or will suffer damage.
  • The damage should not be borne by you.
