Abstract

Wastewater reuse is encouraged and facilitated by legislation and policy across the EU. A recent example is the EU Regulation 2020/741 on minimum requirements for water reuse. This and other regulatory developments have gone hand in hand with an increase in research in technological innovations that facilitate wastewater reuse, including advanced water treatment technologies. Despite these harmonised developments at the EU level, there appear to be large differences across Member States in the volume of reused water, its sources and the purposes of wastewater reuse. These differences are mirrored in the differences in the regulation of wastewater reuse across the European Union. The present paper has two goals. The first is to provide an overview of the regulation of wastewater reuse in three EU Member States, namely, Spain, Malta and the Netherlands. The comparative analysis reveals evidence of variability in the division of roles and responsibilities, substantive provisions on water reuse, and the allocation of costs. The second objective of the paper is to highlight how, even within the boundaries of the theoretical best practices, national regulation can be heterogenous. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Grote delen van de wereld hebben of krijgen mede door klimaatverandering in toenemende mate te maken met waterschaarsterisico’s. Ook Europa en Nederland zullen de dans niet ontspringen en zulle adequaat adaptatiebeleid moeten ontwikkelen en uitvoeren. Daarnaast zijn er binnen de EU en Nederland vergaande ambities om in 2050 een volledig circulaire economie tot stand te hebben gebracht. Eén van de strategieën om deze risico’s te lijf te gaan en bij te dragen aan de verwezenlijking van deze ambities is het hergebruik van (stedelijk) afvalwater. In dit artikel bespreken wij het Europeesrechtelijke kader en de implementatie daarvan in Nederland voor hergebruik van stedelijk afvalwater, met bijzondere aandacht voor Verordening 2020/741 inzake minimumeisen voor hergebruik van water die per 26 juni 2023 van kracht zal zijn. Vervolgens onderwerpen wij de ontwikkelingen in dit verband aan een discussie, waarbij we ingaan op de vraag of naar verwachting inderdaad grootschalig gebruik zal worden gemaakt van de mogelijkheden die de Verordening biedt en welke volgende ontwikkelingen te verwachten zijn.
