EU plans proposals for water pollutants next year

摘要

The European Commission plans to issue a legislative proposal next year on integrated water management that will cover surface and ground water pollutants, including pesticides. The action is among the proposed initiatives listed in the “Letter of Intent”, published to accompany Commission president Ursula von der Leyen’s State of the Union speech in September. The Letter of Intent outlines new actions that the Commission intends to take in its work programme for 2022.
