DP01719801_VEZZA_D_OGLIO Wastewater Treatment Plant, Vezza d'Oglio, Lombardia

DP01719801_VEZZA_D_OGLIO is a wastewater treatment plant located in Vezza d'Oglio, a municipality in the province of Brescia, Lombardia, Italy. The plant serves a population of approximately 31,429, classifying it as a medium-sized agglomeration under EU regulations. As a plant in Italy, it operates under the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive 91/271/EEC, which requires secondary treatment for agglomerations of this size. The directive also mandates more advanced treatment if the receiving waters are designated as sensitive areas. The plant discharges treated wastewater into the local water system, which ultimately drains into the Oglio River, a tributary of the Po River. The Po River flows into the Adriatic Sea, making the plant's operations important for the ecological health of the Po basin and the northern Adriatic coastal environment.

The plant discharges into the Oglio River, a major tributary of the Po River, which flows into the Adriatic Sea. The Po basin is a densely populated and agriculturally intensive region, and nutrient loading from wastewater can contribute to eutrophication in the Adriatic. The plant's treatment level is critical for protecting downstream aquatic ecosystems and coastal water quality.
