Water Framework Directive - the next big challenge?

From a Waterra perspective 2010 sees the start of a major focus on the implications of the Water Framework Directive and in particular how Operator Self Monitoring (OSM) will work in practice.

Waterra has supplied many businessess in the water and energy sectors for many years and many of these already well positioned to achieve the standards required. But what happens as OSM is rolled out across other industry sectors? Food and drink, for instance, is one of the largest industry sectors and a major user of water resources - it also produces a significant quantity of waste. Are companies in this sector, particularly SMEs, at all aware of their responsibilities and the monitoring regimes they may need to comply with?

Waterra will be working hard through 2010 and beyond to support clients affected by new guidance arising from the roll out of the Water Framework Directive and looking at what solutions we can bring to the table to help industry sectors and individual businesses comply with the regulations.

If you have any issue regarding the directive or you need to understand how you can meet the OSM requirements then call us today on +44 (0)121 733 7743.
