The brew is lined from Preten to Boizenburg by some flood polders, some of which are separated by pumping stations. They serve to accommodate flood peaks. There are also protective polders to protect the localities. If the water level difference at the weir in Gothmann is more than 1.5 meters, it must be closed for structural safety reasons. After that, the water from the brew can no longer drain away and builds up. Thanks to the existing retreat areas, there was no major damage to the neighboring towns during the Elbe floods in 2002.
