Stockholm responds to EU wastewater directive proposals

The City Executive Board of Stockholm has responded to a referral from the Ministry of Climate and Enterprise regarding proposed new legislative changes following the EU's revised wastewater directive. While largely welcoming proposals for stricter treatment requirements, including quaternary treatment for micropollutants and extended producer responsibility, Stockholm points out the need for clearer definitions, a tight implementation timeline for quaternary treatment, and an impact assessment for municipal supervisory authorities.
This summary is based on the meeting agenda. We'll update when the minutes are published.
