Selected
the Vistula Lagoon region/area / the lagoon area
I may be wrong, but I suppose they mean "Zalew Wiślany"...

A strategy of economic recovery of the Vistula Lagoon region was prepared by the Union of Lagoon’s Communities (ULC);
...areas surrounding the Vistula Lagoon and Vistula River depression area
The major city (Elblag) of the Lagoon, plus 3 smaller towns, are revitalised as the area’s nodal points encompassing the major activities necessary for a proper functioning of the Lagoon communities (education, SMEs, culture, trans-EU traffic to Kaliningrad region, etc.).
http://ec.europa.eu/ourcoast/index.cfm?menuID=7&articleID=30...
Project VILA can lead to effective growth in flow of cargo streams in the Vistula Lagoon area, establish closer contacts in the field of environmental protection and growth of touristic atractiveness in all region.

area beyond the (normal) floodplain
Pod względem zależności od poziomów rzeki , rozróżnia się:
terasy nadzalewowe,
terasy zalewowe.
Są to jednak rozróżnienia głównie tradycyjne, mające niewielkie znaczenie praktyczne. Terasa nadzalewowa jest położona ponad obecne stany maksymalne rzeki, a utworzona w czasach historycznych, gdy rzeka osiągała wyższe poziomy. Natomiast terasa zalewowa potencjalnie może zostać zalana podczas powodzi. Jednak faktycznie terasy zalewowe rzek znajdują się często powyżej obecnie notowanych stanów powodziowych, a jednocześnie niekiedy mogą one, jak również terasy nadzalewowe zostać zalane w przypadku wystąpienia katastrofalnej powodzi o dotychczas nienotowanym poziomie (sytuacja taka nastąpiła w wielu miejscach w dolinie Odry, gdzie wiele teras i starorzeczy zostało uznane bezpieczne i zasiedlone, a podczas powodzi w 1997 roku zabudowa została zniszczona przez powódź).

Flood stage is the level at which the surface of a river, stream, ocean, or other body of water has risen to a sufficient level to cause sufficient inundation of areas not normally covered by water to cause an inconvenience or a threat to life and property. When a body of water rises to this level, it is considered a flood event. Flood stage does not apply to areal flooding. Because areal flooding occurs by definition over areas not normally covered by water, any water at all creates a flood. Usually, Moderate and Major stages are not defined for areal floodplains.

: Nie chodzi o powodzie - "nadzalewowy" to przymiotnik na wzór "nadmorski", "nadrzeczny", "nadjeziorny" itp. || Na pewno nie "Nadzalewowy" - czy piszemy "tereny Nadmorskie/Nadrzeczne"? - ta błędna pisownia pojawia się tylko raz: http://tinyurl.com/pua2ewb .

It depends: is it a general physical feature or is a specific region, like mike23 has in his answer, in which case it should have been Nadzalewowy with capital N. Do you care to comment on mike23 submission?

Discussion
1) the area or region surrounding the lagoon (in general) or the Vistula Lagoon as I interpreted it from the context
2) the physical area lying over/beyond/above the river and/or lagoon floodplain as MarcoJanus interpreted it
I think the author of the question knows the right interpretation as he has got more context. Thank you everyone for your time and have a good day.
If this is a specific geographic region, we should have had Nadzalewowy with capital N. If not, then perhaps we are talking about a physical feature, a region (be it near the Vistula, the Danube, the Dniepr, or the Mississippi) where the floods reach beyond the normal floodplain.
