The migration of fish in streams and rivers is made impossible by all kinds of structures (watermills, locks, weirs, etc.) that were erected in the past for various uses of the waterways. In 1996 it was agreed that free migration of fish species in all hydrographic basins of the Benelux countries should be made possible again.

Where fish can change level with some effort. The purpose of the hydraulic engineering "fish ladder" is to help fish pass a barrier in a river upstream.
