Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive, Waterbase reported under UWWTD data call 2023 - FINAL PUBLIC VERSION, Oct. 2025 (Tabular data)

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.



The dataset contains data reported by Member States under UWWTD reporting obligations: UWWTD implementation (Article 15) and UWWTD National Implementation Programme (Article 17). The dataset consists of tables containing information on: reported period, agglomerations, urban waste water treatment plants (UWWTPs), links agglomerations – UWWTPs, discharge points, receiving areas, and (at Member State level) sludge handling and treated waste water re-use. Relevant codelist tables (big cities, NUTS, common list of values) are included as well. Article 17 tables are distinguished by the „Art17“ prefix in the table name

Statement

Agglomerations data were reported by Member states in tabular format. Spatial position of individual agglomerations was specified by the geographical coordinates fields (longitude, latitude). These tabular data were checked, grouped into a common Pan-European dataset and transformed to the spatial data layer in GIS software. Inactive agglomerations and agglomerations without coordinates or with obviously wrong coordinates were removed.
