agglomerations in
each Member State
expressed in million
p.e. and in percent of
the total generated]

5. A combination of measures
will be needed
What is the problem?
SD=agglomerations <2 000 p.e., CSO=combined sewer overflows, IAS=individual or other
appropriate systems, The total urban waste water generated is about 612 mio p.e.

Small agglomerations
โข Source of pollution
โข Source of GHG emissions
โข Lack of investments
โข High use of IAS
Individual and other appropriate
systems
โข Source of pollution to surface and
groundwater (esp. drinking water)
โข Source of GHG emissions
โข Can implicate health issues
โข In cases, too much used as
alternative to collecting systems
โข Lack of clear definition
โข Problem with EN standard 12566
โข Not always well maintained and
monitored
6. Policy measures for small agglomerations
