Consorzio Bonifica 5 Toscana Costa

What Consorzio Bonifica 5 Toscana Costa does

Consorzio di Bonifica 5 Toscana Costa is a public economic entity (ente pubblico economico) established under Tuscan Regional Law 79/2012, one of six regional reclamation consortia created by the 2012 reorganization of water management functions in Tuscany. The consortium holds exclusive territorial jurisdiction over hydraulic safety, land reclamation, and irrigation within a 269,761.31-hectare comprensorio spanning four provinces (Livorno, Grosseto, Pisa, Siena) plus the Elba island and Tuscan Archipelago, organized into three Homogeneous Hydrological Units (UIO): Costa Livornese e Val di Cecina, Val di Cornia e Pecora, and Elba e Arcipelago. Its core mandate is to maintain 3,266 km of watercourses, operate pumping stations (impianti idrovori), manage irrigation districts, and coordinate flood emergency response across the territory.

The consortium's operating stack combines physical hydraulic infrastructure with digital monitoring tools. Operationally, it manages scheduled maintenance cycles (Piano Attività di Bonifica), ordinary and extraordinary maintenance of waterways, hydraulic risk reduction works, and 24/7 on-call emergency response (piena service) activated from yellow weather alerts issued by Regione Toscana's functional center. Digitally, it has deployed a Power BI dashboard for real-time PAB work monitoring, Azure-hosted online portals for consorziati to manage contributions and irrigation data, and an online citizen reporting tool for waterway criticalities. Compliance is handled through a transparency portal (Amministrazione Trasparente per D.Lgs. 33/2013), public notice board (Albo Pretorio), whistleblowing channel, and an external DPO (CERTIM srl / Dott. Ennio Fiocchi) for GDPR compliance.

The business model is structured around mandatory contributions rather than market-priced fees. The Contributo Consortile di Bonifica is a real burden on property per R.D. 215/1933 and LR 79/2012, calculated individually per property as the product of technical index, economic index, specific management index, and contribution rate defined in the Piano di Classifica degli Immobili. A separate Contributo Irriguo applies to agricultural properties receiving irrigation services, with growing emphasis on reuse of treated wastewater. Payments are collected via the national PagoPA system (banks, post offices, PagoPA-enabled retailers, IO app, OpenToscana) and home banking through CBILL. The consortium is governed by a 28-member Assembly Consortile (15 elected consorziati, 12 municipal mayors via CAL, 1 from Regione Toscana) with operations reviewed by an independent Auditor (Revisore dei Conti) appointed by the Tuscan Regional Council. Recent strategic positioning includes three River Contracts signed in 2022 (Cecina, Cornia, Pecora), approximately €1.893 million in EU Solidarity Fund financing secured in December 2024 for post-November 2023 flood restoration, and a new expansion basin at Fosso della Madonna inaugurated July 2026.

Revenue model

1. Contributo Consortile di Bonifica: Annual mandatory contribution charged to property owners (consorziati) within the consortium jurisdiction. The contribution is calculated based on the 'benefit' each property receives from consortium activities including hydraulic safety, water drainage, and irrigation management. Amounts are determined using technical indices, economic indices, specific management indices, and contribution rates defined in the Piano di Classifica degli Immobili. The contribution is a real burden on properties per R.D. 215/1933 and LR 79/2012.
2. Contributo Irriguo: Irrigation contribution for agricultural properties receiving irrigation services. Includes reuse of treated wastewater for irrigation purposes and management of new irrigation districts.
