The plant serves a population of 2,441 people, classifying it as a small agglomeration under Italian and EU regulations. The plant employs advanced treatment processes, which go beyond the secondary treatment standard required by the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC) for agglomerations of this size.

The treated effluent is discharged into the local water system, which ultimately drains into the Adriatic Sea via the Livenza River basin. The plant's inland location, more than 10 km from the coast, reduces direct marine impact, but its discharge contributes to the overall water quality of the regional watershed, supporting agricultural and ecological uses downstream.
Environmental context
The plant discharges into the Livenza River basin, which flows through the Veneto plain into the Adriatic Sea. This watershed supports diverse aquatic life and is used for irrigation and recreation. The advanced treatment level helps protect the river's ecological health by reducing nutrient loads and pollutants, mitigating eutrophication risks in the coastal Adriatic ecosystem.
