This Regional Legislative Decree, consisting of 14 articles, establishes the procedure for delimiting the public water domain in the Autonomous Region of Madeira. The delimitation of the public water domain is the administrative procedure by which the line defining the extreme of the beds and banks of the public water domain bordering land of another nature is fixed. The delimitation procedure occurs when there are clear doubts as to the application of the legal criteria to the definition on the ground of the limits of the public water domain, in particular where there are doubts as to the limits of the public domain in relation to neighbouring buildings of a different nature.

Implements: Law No. 54/2005 on the legal regime of water domain. (2005-11-15)
