TOWARDS THE DEFINITION OF GUIDELINES FOR THE RECOVERY AND ENHANCEMENT OF TERRACES

The theme of the enhancement of terraced landscapes includes numerous technical and administrative factors that intersect geological, hydro-geological, geotechnical, material, architectural, landscape and natural skills. The convergence of all instances in a project solution requires the development of complex bureaucratic procedures for the granting of authorizations by each of the institutions involved in the management of the territory. To elaborate "new proposals" for the valorization of the terraces implies the elaboration of procedures clear and shared with all the involved Institutions. The paper aims to identify the essential elements on which the development of guidelines for the recovery and enhancement of terraced landscapes can be structured. The study analyses the structure of the documents adopted in some Italian territories and, subsequently, focuses on the elements necessary for the elaboration of new operational instruments.
