New EU wastewater treatment rules effective: What’s new? • Water News Europe
Published on by Esther Rasenberg, Water News Europe in Government
The European Union's revised Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive (UWWTD) became effective on 1 January 2025. The new law introduces stricter treatment standards, extends coverage to smaller communities, and ensures polluters bear the financial burden of advanced wastewater treatment. EU Member States will now have up to 31 months to adapt their national legislation to the new rules.
