Used in indicators

Urban waste water treatment

Urban waste water treatment Percentage of population connected to primary, secondary and tertiary wastewater treatment plants. The indicator illustrates: 1. changes in wastewater treatment in the regions of Europe since the 1980s; 2. conformity (in terms of providing tertiary treatment) by Member States with the requirement to provide, by 31 December 1998, stringent treatment for agglomerations with population equivalent (p.e.) more than 10 000 that discharge into sensitive areas; 3. levels of urban wastewater treatment in large cities in the EU (agglomerations >150 000 p.e.).

Use of freshwater resources

Use of freshwater resources The water exploitation index (WEI) is the mean annual total abstraction of freshwater divided by the mean annual total renewable freshwater resource at the country level, expressed in percentage terms.
