The project comprises numerous wastewater treatment schemes located throughout the Promoter’s operating area. Welsh Water’s capital programme has been approved and its implementation is closely monitored by the public sector water regulator, OFWAT, the Environmental Agency and the Drinking Water Inspectorate. A large part of the schemes is located in Regional Development Areas.
The project aims at ensuring Welsh Water’s compliance with the revised EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive. All of the schemes included within the project focus on quality improvements and attainment of increasingly stringent environmental standards required by EU and national legislation.
The investments included within the project will serve to improve compliance with the EU Drinking Water Directive (98/83/EC), and to meet the 2005 deadlines of the Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC). The project will also help to meet national river quality objective (RQO) improvement targets set by the UK Environmental Agency, which are in line with the objectives of the EU Water Framework Directive.
The programme falls under the Procurement Directive 93/38/EC and its amendment 98/4/EC. The promoter has confirmed to fully comply with its requirements.
