You want to transport animals? Then it is best to get advice, as there are different requirements depending on the animals to be transported and the reason for transport.

Water law comprises the federal and state standards that relate to the order and management of surface waters and groundwater. In principle, water bodies can only be managed with official permission. There is no entitlement to such a permit.

Water law regulates, among other things, the requirements for structures in, under or above surface waters and for wastewater treatment plants. It regulates prohibitions and restrictions in watercourse margins, flood plains and water protection areas, as well as notification requirements for boreholes affecting groundwater. It also determines the content and scope of the obligation to maintain water bodies.

In M-V darf auf anderen Gewässern als den Bundeswasserstraßen überwiegend nur mit muskelkraftgetriebenen Wasserfahrzeugen gefahren werden. Das Befahren der nicht schiffbaren Gewässer mit Motorfahrzeugen ist in den meisten Fällen nur mit wasserbehördlicher Zulassung zulässig.

Navigable waters may in principle be navigated by anyone with all vessels.

Beyond the federal waterways, no bodies of water in Rhineland-Palatinate have currently been designated as navigable within the meaning of the State Water Act. Other waters may be navigated by non-motorized vessels such as paddle boats or canoes, unless this is prohibited or restricted for nature conservation or water law reasons. In exceptional cases, however, motor-driven vehicles may be permitted to drive on these waters by means of a revocable permit in accordance with § 42 paragraph 4 LWG.

Such a permit shall not be required if the navigation of a non-navigable body of water is authorised as common use by the competent water authority.
