Abstract: Along the lower section of the Hungarian Danube, that is between the southern state frontier and the Dunafoldvar bridge, the tasks of river regulation and channel marking are the responsibility of the Lower Danube Valley District Water Authority (Baja), which is responsible for ice control as well. The purpose of river regulation is to ensure the passage of water, ice, and sediment without any damage by creating such a state of bed which is able to eliminate disastrous floods, the harmful development of shallows, bankslides, and deterioration. On navigable river reaches, the development of a navigation channel with the prescribed dimensions related to the navigation and regulation of low water determined as decisive level should also be promoted by regulation work.
