ROWP SC ACET SA SUCEAVA AG VATRA DORNEI is a municipal wastewater treatment plant located at 15, Strada 22 Decembrie in Vatra Dornei, Suceava County, Romania. The plant serves a population of approximately 19,843 residents, placing it in the medium agglomeration category under Romanian and EU regulations. As a Romanian facility, the plant operates under the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive 91/271/EEC, which requires secondary treatment for agglomerations of this size discharging into freshwater. The plant's treatment processes and capacity details are not publicly available, but the regulatory framework ensures compliance with national and EU standards for effluent quality. The plant discharges treated wastewater into local water bodies that ultimately drain into the Siret River basin, a major tributary of the Danube River. The Danube flows into the Black Sea, making this plant part of a large transboundary watershed. Proper treatment is essential to protect downstream aquatic ecosystems and water quality in the Danube Delta region.
Environmental context
The plant's treated effluent enters local streams that feed into the Siret River, a significant tributary of the Danube. The Danube River basin is one of Europe's most important ecological corridors, supporting diverse aquatic life and providing water for millions of people. Downstream, the Danube Delta is a vast wetland ecosystem that serves as a critical habitat for migratory birds and fish species. Effective wastewater treatment at this plant helps reduce nutrient and pollutant loads entering this sensitive environment.
