New Drinking Water Safety and Risk Assessment Rules for the Entire Supply Chain
This law introduces comprehensive changes to the water supply system, focusing on risk assessment at every stage, from the source to the tap. It imposes new obligations on water suppliers, building owners, and municipalities to improve the quality and safety of drinking water. For citizens, this means greater access to water quality information, new standards for materials in contact with water, and mandatory inspections of installations in public buildings.
Key points
Introduction of mandatory, regular risk assessments for the entire water supply system – from the source, through the network, to the internal building installation.
New obligations for owners and managers of priority buildings (e.g., hospitals, hotels, nurseries) – they must test water for Legionella bacteria and lead, and conduct a risk assessment of the installation.
Water suppliers are obliged to annually inform consumers about water quality, risk assessment results, prices, and network leakage levels.
Municipalities are required to identify people without access to drinking water and take action to improve this access, including providing public water points.
Stricter requirements for materials and products used in contact with drinking water – they will require certificates, and water treatment chemicals will require hygiene attestations.
Introduction of financial penalties for water suppliers and building owners for failing to meet new obligations, such as lack of risk assessment or failure to inform about water quality.
