Ziele

The project concerns Hamburger Stadtentwässerung's investment programme for the period of 2020-2023 that will improve the efficiency and sustainability of wastewater services in Hamburg. It mainly consists of investments for the modernisation and upgrading of the central wastewater treatment plant.

Umweltaspekte

The project aims at maintaining compliance with the Water Framework Directive 2000/60/EC. Several of the construction schemes included in the project might fall under Annex II of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Directive 2014/52/EU amending the EIA Directive 2011/92/EU.

Where appropriate, the requirements of the Habitats and Birds Directives (92/43/EEC and 2009/147/EC) are applied. The Bank's appraisal will focus on the Promoter's environmental management capacity to properly apply these EU Directives. All relevant key documents for the project will be published, in line with the Bank's disclosure policy.
