End-of-pipe dreams.(Features)
The costs of the WFD are meant to be shared, butwater companies could end up shouldering most of the burden, says Chris Hoggart
As the preparations gather pace for the 2009 Periodic Review (PR09), the water industry is trying to assess how the Water Framework Directive (WFD) will affect its investment plans. Two major uncertainties loom. One is the extent to which the WFD's objectives of achieving "good" ecological and chemical status are expected to be realised in the first cycle of river basin planning, which ends in 2015. The other is how the costs of improvement measures will be distributed and how much of them will fall on the water industry.
