COV Jevicko Wastewater Treatment Plant, Jevíčko, Pardubický kraj

COV Jevicko is a municipal wastewater treatment plant located in Jevíčko, a town in the Pardubický kraj region of the Czech Republic. The plant serves a population of approximately 4,919 people, classifying it as a small to medium agglomeration under Czech and EU regulatory frameworks. The plant provides secondary treatment, which is the standard required by the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC) for agglomerations of this size. With a designed capacity of 4,000 m³/day and a reported discharge volume of 474.93 m³/day, the plant operates well within its capacity, indicating efficient management of local wastewater flows. The treated effluent is discharged into a local watercourse that ultimately drains into the Danube River basin, contributing to the broader hydrological network of Central Europe. The plant plays a key role in protecting the local aquatic environment from untreated sewage, supporting water quality in downstream ecosystems.

The plant discharges into a local stream that flows into the Jevíčka River, a tributary of the Svitava River, which joins the Morava River and eventually the Danube River. This watershed supports diverse aquatic life and is part of the ecologically significant Danube basin. The secondary treatment provided by the plant helps reduce nutrient and organic loads, protecting downstream water quality in this sensitive river network.
