7 Event/ date: Working group D, 28 March 2012, Brussels Author: Hana Prchalova, CENIA Comparison of E-PRTR data with UWWTD data reporting

8 Comparison of discharges from urban wastewater treatment plants (UWWTPs) reported under UWWTD and E-PRTR Pollutants compared: –Total Nitrogen, –Total Phosphorus and –TOC (TOC in UWWTD was calculated from the COD) Only UWWTPs with more than p.e. and emission discharges above threshold values are reported in E-PRTR and were compared The first comparison was produced by UBA Vienna in 2011 with the UWWTD database of 2007/2008 Event/ date: Working group D, 28 March 2012, Brussels Author: Hana Prchalova, CENIA

9 Comparison of E-PRTR data with UWWTD data reporting The 2nd comparison is now done by ETC/ICM (Hana Prchalova) with the UWWTD database of 2009/2010 and E-PRTR data (reference year 2009, version 3.1) Request from EEA: to compare discharges from CZ, PL, IT and ES based on the same IDs No same IDs were found for these countries, the comparison was based on reported names and p.e. – only for ES and CZ Methodology – the same as in the 2011 comparison: interlinking of E-PRTR facilities reporting under activity 5.(f) with UWWTPs Event/ date: Working group D, 28 March 2012, Brussels Author: Hana Prchalova, CENIA

10 Results - Spain The match is similar to the previous UWWTD reporting. Event/ date: Working group D, 28 March 2012, Brussels Author: Hana Prchalova, CENIA

11 Results - CZ The consistency of reporting by the Czech Republic has improved considerably due to corrected discharges under UWWTD reporting. Total nitrogen and phosphorus discharges match very well, but TOC discharges in UWWTD are significantly smaller than E-PRTR values for three facilities.

13 State of play of 2011 reporting on Bathing Water Directive, BWD Reporting by MS of the 2011 bathing season took place in Nov/Dec 2011 ETC/ICM partner IWRS (Lidija Globevnik, Tina Kirn, Marko Kovacic, Katarina Zore, Dunja Zupan Vrenko) –supports the reporting, –is doing the QA of the data with MS, –is analysing the data, –is consulting compliance issues with DG ENV, –is preparing the EEA Report on European bathing water quality 2011 for launch in June Event/ date: WG D meeting, 28 March 12, Brussels Author: Anita Künitzer

14 First draft results of assessment for the 2011 bathing season A total of 16 MS are already assessed under the new Directive compared to 3 MS in 2010 (LU, MT, HU) and 2 MS in 2009 (LU, MT). A total of 8 MS are assessed under transitional rules (AT, BG, FR, IE, IT, NL, PL, SI) plus three non-EU countries (CH, HR, ME). Only three MS are assessed under the old Directive (CZ, RO and UK).

25 OECD/Eurostat Joint Questionnaire pre-filling : SoE/UWWTD parameter comparison with JQ, scripts for data extraction and aggregation by ETC/ICM 31 January 2012: Meeting OECD, Eurostat, EEA, ETC/ICM on update of Joint Questionnaire (JQ) and pre- filling by ETC/ICM End March/early April: Revised JQ finalised by OECD and Eurostat (Info from Eurostat: probably delayed). April - July: ETC/ICM to pre-fill the OECD/Eurostat JQ and the Eurostat Regional Questionnaire in with SoE data (emission and water quantity) from 2011 reporting and UWWTD data from 2011/2012 reporting. Early September: JQ + RQ sent to Member Countries Event/ date: WG D meeting, 28 March 12, Brussels Author: Anita Künitzer

31 Streamlining of UWWTD reporting with Eurostat Joint Questionnaire-ETC ICM work Identification of additional parameters to be reported within the UWWTD data flow (2010) Consultation with the MS (2010) Incorporating the additional parameters into the UWWTD reporting IT tool-the web tool Developing additional QAQC scripts to ensure data quality for the pre-filling Internal testing Pre-filling for JQ in spring 2012

32 Additional UWWT parameters

33 Additional QAQC rules Checks of population served by the treatment vs.total national population Design capacity vs. load entering the WWTP plausibility check for water reuse Discharged vs.incoming load (BOD, COD, N and P) Sludge production quotient must in all cases be <0 - otherwise the WTTP would generate pollution. The actual values allow checking of the treatment efficiency + outlier detection.
