The plant serves a population of 1,109 and operates with secondary treatment, which is appropriate for small agglomerations under Czech and EU regulations. As a secondary treatment facility, COV Solnice removes organic matter and suspended solids, meeting the standards required by the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC) for settlements of this size. The plant's designed capacity of 4,500 m³/day indicates it has room for future growth, while current discharge is 988.37 m³/day. The treated effluent from COV Solnice is discharged into local waterways that eventually drain into the North Sea via the Elbe River basin. The plant plays a key role in protecting the region's water quality and supporting the ecological health of downstream aquatic environments.

COV Solnice discharges into the local water system within the Elbe River basin, which flows through the Czech Republic and Germany before reaching the North Sea. The downstream environment supports diverse aquatic life and is part of a major European watershed. The plant's secondary treatment helps reduce nutrient and organic pollution, safeguarding water quality in the region.
