DP01701902_BIONE_S_ROCCO is an advanced wastewater treatment plant located in San Faustino, within the municipality of Bione in the Lombardia region of northern Italy. The plant serves a small population of 33 residents and is part of the local wastewater infrastructure managed under Italian and EU regulations. The plant employs advanced treatment processes, which go beyond secondary treatment to remove nutrients and other pollutants. The plant operates well below its capacity, indicating it is designed to accommodate future growth or seasonal variations. The treated effluent is discharged into local water bodies that ultimately drain into the Po River basin, which flows into the Adriatic Sea. The plant's advanced treatment helps protect the sensitive aquatic ecosystems of the Po River and the Adriatic coastal zone, supporting biodiversity and water quality.

The plant discharges into the Po River basin, which flows through northern Italy and empties into the Adriatic Sea. The Po River delta is an ecologically sensitive area that supports diverse aquatic life and important migratory bird populations. Advanced treatment at this plant helps reduce nutrient loading, protecting downstream water quality and the fragile coastal ecosystem.
