The LAG Delta 2000 operates over an area covering 13 Municipalities in the Province of Ferrara (Argenta, Berra, Codigoro, Comacchio, Goro, Jolanda di Savoia, Lagosanto, Massa Fiscaglia, Mesola, Migliarino, Migliaro, Ostellato, Portomaggiore) and 6 in the Province of Ravenna (Alfonsine, Bagnacavallo, Cervia, Conselice, Ravenna, Russi). These territories, partially or totally included, are mainly rural and characterised by protected areas which have been recognised at a national or European level.
All the Municipalities are either directly bound or brought together by their closeness to the Po Delta Regional Park.
THE ENVIRONMENT
The Po Delta Regional Park covers a very important part of the territory of the Emilia-Romagna Region: from the Po di Goro in the North, it develops including the whole historical delta of the river Po and the mouths of some Apennine rivers like the river Reno, the river Lamone, the Fiumi Uniti, the Bevano, and brackish wetlands situated along the Adriatic coast and the near hinterland like the Sacca di Goro, the Commacchio Valleys, the "Piallasse" of Ravenna, the Salines of Cervia, the inner wetlands of the Campotto Valleys, woods and pinewoods like the Bosco della Mesola and the Pinewoods of San Vitale. It is also rich in many important monuments: the Abbey of Pomposa, St. Apollinare in Classe, the "chiaviche" (monumental water locks), and the historical town centers of Mesola, Comacchio, Ravenna, and Cervia.
