European Parliament
President.
Question No 38 by Alexandros Alavanos , which has been taken over by Mihail Papayannakis
Subject: Biological purification plants
Biological purification plants have been constructed in many towns in Greece using Structural Fund resources. It is reported that 260 of the 290 biological purification plants built are only partly operational or have been abandoned.
Will the Commission say how many of the biological purification plants funded by the Structural Funds so far are fully operational and how many have operating problems and for which reasons? What does it intend to do to ensure that the biological purification plants which have received substantial Community funding are fully operational and continue to operate?
