Regional —autonomic— scale is the key piece in our country for the sustainable land ordination. The elaboration of regional, general and sectorial, plans of spatial planning grants protagonism emphasized to risk reduction. Basic requirement in these cases is the existence of a detailed and precise cartography of risk. Besides, the existence of territorial plans of regional scale must suppose the control of the soli transformation that removes to end in the municipal scale. This paper present two examples distinguished of spatial planning with risk reduction criteria —essentially floods— in the regional scale put in practice in Spain during last two decades.
