**5. Conclusions**

This assessment of societal readiness and resilience to water-related situations in the Czech Republic focuses on an interdisciplinary approach in the Czech Republic for solving this problem. The goal of the article is to evaluate and characterize the preparedness for handling water-related crises, which are covered by a type plan based on a risk analysis

within the scope of crisis planning. The assessment is carried out via a case study in the Czech Republic and focuses notably on the viewpoint of prepared societal measures. The theoretical part of the article delimits and characterizes selected type plans that are part of crisis plans and are related to water. The practical part of the article focuses on an assessment of selected measures of type plans with a focus on water.

The analysis is carried out via a SWOT analysis, which is a universal analytical method used to understand and interpret strengths and weaknesses and to identify opportunities and threats. For the calculation of the weight factor of the SWOT analysis, an assessment was determined based on the multicriteria analysis that a group of selected experts performed on crisis management, planning and risk analysis. The pair comparison method was used to determine the relative importance of the parameters of the strengths and weaknesses, opportunities and threats. The Fuller Triangle method was chosen for the system used to make the comparisons of the individual criteria. The obtained information led to the results of the assessment of water-related crises which are covered by a type plan based on a risk analysis within the scope of crisis planning.

On the basis of the performed investigation, it can be said that planning documentation for managing water-related crises has been prepared in the Czech Republic. The individual plans contain selected measures that react to possible crisis scenarios. The possible impacts on society in the Czech Republic are reflected in the plans.

From the perspective of Opportunities, an emphasis was placed on the use of experience from the resolution of previous crises in the Czech Republic. Another characteristic that was assessed is the implementation of exercises with a focus on solution possibilities and proper communication during water-related crises. When evaluating the Weaknesses, there is evidently a higher assessment of the characteristic of the higher demands on the solution in areas with a high concentration of living persons (city agglomerations) and the need for a timely and substantive reaction in health and social facilities of a stationary type.

With the use of the SWOT analysis, it was shown that water-related crises for which a type plan has been prepared as part of the crisis planning on the basis of a risk analysis point to a slightly positive score—a value of +0.60. The identified positives and negatives, and also the identified vulnerabilities, are the best ways to identify safety policy priorities. It is clear that the handling of water-related crises needs to be carried out via the implementation of preventive as well as reactive tools. Safety problems in general, and hence also waterrelated crises, cannot be handled exclusively via safety measures.

The uniqueness of the study consists of the issue of water management, which is thus reflected from a non-traditional perspective, being a contemporary model—the paradigm of the view on the preparedness of the planning documentation as one of the characteristics of societal resilience for water-related crises.
