UWWTD Discharge Points, Oct. 2019 is one of the datasets produced within the frame of the reporting under 10th UWWTD Art.15 reporting period (UWWTD data call 2017). The Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (UWWTD) (91/271/EEC) obliges Member States to report data on the implementation of the Directive upon request from the European Commission bi-annually. Reported data include receiving areas as designated under UWWTD, agglomerations, urban waste water treatment plants serving the agglomerations and points of discharges. Dataset UWWTD_DischargePoints contains information on individual points of discharge from urban waste water treatment plants or collecting systems, including their coordinates of discharge, link to specific treatment plant, type of receiving area into which the effluent / wastewater is discharged, related waterbody (or river basin), information on the discharge on land and potential reuse of the treated waste water. The public dataset of discharge points is not used in published UWWTD maps (https://www.eea.europa.eu/themes/water/european-waters/water-use-and-environmental-pressures/uwwtd/interactive-maps/urban-waste-water-treatment-maps-2) for the time being. The source discharge points dataset is available in tabular format through the EEA website (https://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/data/waterbase-uwwtd-urban-waste-water-treatment-directive-6). The full (internal) dataset including inactive discharge points is available under "Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive, Discharge points reported under UWWTD data call 2017 - INTERNAL VERSION - Oct. 2019"

UWWTD Discharge Points, Nov. 2020 is one of the datasets produced within the frame of the reporting under 11th UWWTD Art.15 reporting period (UWWTD data call 2019). The Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (UWWTD) (91/271/EEC) obliges Member States to report data on the implementation of the Directive upon request from the European Commission bi-annually. Reported data include receiving areas as designated under UWWTD, agglomerations, urban waste water treatment plants serving the agglomerations and points of discharges.

This dataset contains information on individual points of discharge from treatment plants or collecting systems, localisation of discharge, link to specific treatment plant, type of receiving area into which the effluent/wastwater is dicharged, related waterbody (or river basin), information on the discharge on land. The table T_ReceivingAreas (uwwtd_receivingareas_v4.txt) summarises information on designated sensitive areas, date of designation, the purpose of the designation, type of sensitive areas. Moreover, the table specifies which particular article of the UWWTD is applied in regards to designation of sensitive areas.
