In early September, the Province of Treviso announced a 500,000 euro allocation to support municipal administrations with environmental management and ditch maintenance. The initiative aimed to reduce hydraulic risk and protect biodiversity, with President Marco Donadel noting that maintenance serves as a form of prevention against climate change effects.

By late September, several infrastructure and maintenance projects regarding Italian waterways were reported as completed. In Ceva, a 700-meter stretch of the Cevetta stream was cleaned and regularized to improve water flow. In the Veneto region, works totaling approximately 2 million euros were finalized to consolidate the banks of the Canale Fossetta through stone, earth, and metal barriers to prevent landslides and water infiltration.
