Direct benefits information:
There are avoided costs. According to the predictions the upgraded situation will decrease the total maintenace costs that emerged previously at the two organisations (water directorate, national park)
Ancillary benefits information:
There is no economic assessment of the miscallenous benefits. These could come from recreational activities, nutrient load mitigation and habitat services.
Costs investment information:
New water supply chanel, creation of wetland, reconstruction work inside the lake, reconstruction of drainage channels.
Inflation adjusted price from HUF 2009
Costs operation maintenance:
Costs operation maintenance:
This is the maintenance cost of the channels. Additonal cost will emerge in case of severe water shortage (reference to the water depth), the pumping of treated water to the constructed wetland to start supply the lake will start. It will have a cc 15€/day cost.
Information on Ecosystem improved biodiversity:
The eutrophication process that threatened the lake was changed, the water lily (Nympheaetum albae) appeared again in the lake.
Ecosystem provisioning services:
Information on Ecosystem provisioning services:
The biomass of the lake now serves as feedstock for the buffalos. A recently finished, paralel ecology pilot-project applied water buffalos (Bubalus bubalus) to repel invasive species from the area. The first results of the program are positive.
