EurEauThe European Parliament will vote tomorrow on the #UWWTD.
Local needs for environmental protection when addressing and managing storm water overflows and urban run off discharges require flexibility.
The #UWWTD vote in tomorrow's EP is crucial.
Compensation: the reverse burden of proof stated in article 26 will likely result in legal procedures, because the causal link between the damage and violation should be established, and not just presumed.
Thus, we call for the adoption of amendment 254.
Tomorrow, the EuroParl will vote on the #UWWTD
The ambition of #EPR and the implementation of the polluter pays principle has been watered down by including a co-financing model for the costs of quaternary treatment for the removal of #micropollutants.
Their affordability must be ensured. Therefore, we encourage the adoption of amendment 264.
The EuroParl will vote tomorrow on the #UWWTD
#Energy #neutrality: the #EP Report's goals still collide with the reality of the sector and will be extremely challenging to achieve, given that in too many cases, even if maximising the energy that can be generated through #biogas from sludge, the installation of photovoltaic panels covering every UWWTP available surface or wind turbines, the energy would cover 50-60% of the energy demand.
We recommend adopting amendment 267
The 2023 Water Ireland conference on 'Towards a Sustainable Water Future' is today, in beautiful Portlaoise. @Sébastien Mouret will be talking about the Future Outlook on EU Water Policy and the #UWWTD

Margrete AukenRT @Cyrille_MT: Great discussion with MEP @MargreteAuken about the ongoing revision of the #UWWTD💧✨ and how to achieve the Zero Pollution ambition in Europe. 🇪🇺♻️ Margrete discussed the need to address pollution at source combined with end of pipe treatment & strongly supported the EPR scheme.

ZeroPMEU's proposal for the Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive #UWWTD enforces the polluter pays principle for producers of certain #pharmaceuticals and #cosmetics that pollute. If combined with #CLP this can incentivize less #PMT and #PFAS use. See our joint #pressrelease 👇
