COV Nove Mesto na Morave Wastewater Treatment Plant, Nové Město na Moravě

COV Nove Mesto na Morave is a municipal wastewater treatment plant located in Petrovice, near Nové Město na Moravě in the Kraj Vysočina region of the Czech Republic. The facility serves a population of approximately 9,941, classifying it as a medium agglomeration under EU regulations. As a plant serving between 2,000 and 10,000 population equivalents, it is required under the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC) to provide secondary treatment as a minimum. The plant's treatment process and capacity details are not publicly available, but the regulatory framework ensures compliance with national standards set by the Czech Ministry of the Environment. The treated effluent is discharged into local waterways that drain into the Svratka River basin, ultimately flowing into the Dyje River and then the Morava River, which is part of the Danube River system. This connection to the Black Sea watershed highlights the plant's role in protecting downstream aquatic ecosystems.

The plant discharges into the Svratka River basin, a tributary of the Dyje River, which flows into the Morava River and eventually the Danube River, reaching the Black Sea. The local watershed supports diverse aquatic life and is part of a larger ecological network. The plant's treatment helps protect water quality in this sensitive river system.
