LA POBLA DE SEGUR Wastewater Treatment Plant, la Pobla de Segur, Catalunya

LA POBLA DE SEGUR is a wastewater treatment plant located in la Pobla de Segur, a town in the comarca of Pallars Jussà, Lleida, within the autonomous community of Catalunya, Spain. The plant serves a population of about 2,117 residents, reflecting its role as a small-scale municipal facility in a rural setting. As a Spanish wastewater treatment plant, it operates under the national transposition of the EU Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC). For agglomerations with a population equivalent (PE) between 2,000 and 10,000, the directive requires appropriate treatment, typically secondary treatment, to protect receiving waters. It is expected to meet these regulatory standards. The treated effluent is discharged into the local water environment, likely the Noguera Pallaresa River, which flows through the Pyrenees and eventually joins the Segre River, a major tributary of the Ebro River. The Ebro River drains into the Mediterranean Sea via the Ebro Delta, an ecologically important area. The plant plays a key role in protecting the local watershed and downstream aquatic ecosystems from pollution.

The plant discharges into the Noguera Pallaresa River, which flows through the Pyrenees and joins the Segre River, a tributary of the Ebro River. The Ebro River empties into the Mediterranean Sea via the Ebro Delta, a region of high ecological value supporting diverse aquatic life and migratory birds. The plant's treatment helps maintain water quality in this sensitive riverine and coastal environment.
