16- On 13 September in Annaba, the Minister of Water Resources of Algeria, Hocine Necib, stated  that "the diversification of water resources is essential for a secure supply." During his visit to the Les Salines pumping station,  the minister insisted on the rehabilitation and the exploitation of  surface water confirming that these actions constitute "a security in drinking water supply".The configuration of water supply networks is not secure enough and it needs to be taken seriously," said Mr.Necib. Further information on EMWIS website

17- The Minister of Agriculture, Water Resources and Fisheries of Tunisia, Samir Ettaïeb, pointed out that the Gordian knot of any expansion of the agricultural sector is water scarcity. Tunisia suffers from a flagrant deficit of water, hence the in-depth work undertaken to overcome these deficiencies is building reliable and high-capacity dams. Mr. Ettaïeb also emphasized the role of the citizen, who must show a sense of civility and responsibility when it comes to water, not forgetting the use of drilling reservoirs to store rainwater (el majel). In addition, the minister urged public companies to pay their water bills to enable SONEDE to provide better benefits to citizens. He explained also that the other solution, advocated by his department, remains the desalination of seawater with the creation of  new stations. Further information on EMWIS website

18- The city of Bucharest has selected a consortium composed of SUEZ, FCC and Aqualia to modernise the wastewater treatment plant and to build a treatment and sludge-to-energy plant in Glina, located south-east of the capital.

20- Portugal is facing the country's worst drought in more than 20 years. The dire situation might lead to a ban on the irrigation of farmland, which uses up 80 percent of the region's available water.   Portugal's Pego do Altar reservoir looks like disused quarry now, its bare, exposed slopes rising up steeply on each side and shimmering in the sun as it holds barely 11 percent of the water it was designed for. The huge lake where people used to swim, boat and fish has shrunk to a slither of water, surrounded by baked, cracked earth and a handful of white fish carcasses. It is a desolate and disturbing sight – and one that has become increasingly common in southern Portugal. Further information on EMWIS website

21- PSA Antwerp (PSAA), MSC PSA European Terminal (MPET) and Antwerp Terminal Services (ATS) will invest 300,000 euros in the construction of three large tanks with a combined capacity of 240,000 litres to collect and store rainwater at the MPET, Europa and Noordzee terminals. Further information on EMWIS website

22-  On 7 September 2017, Water-poor Jordan  launched a project using seawater to produce crops with clean energy. Jordan's King, Abdullah II and Crown Prince Haakon of Norway, who contributed to most of the 3.7 million Dollars cost, inaugurated the facility in the kingdom's Red Sea port city of Aqaba. Haakon told reporters that he was impressed by the way innovative ideas have been translated into a plant the size of four football fields. The facility, part of the Sahara Forest Project (SFP), produces "energy, freshwater and food and all this in an arid desert," he said. Further information on EMWIS website

23- From a hillside in northern Jordan, the Yarmouk River is barely visible in the steep valley below, reduced from a once important water source to a sluggish trickle overgrown with vegetation. Jordan’s reservoirs are only one-fifth full, a record low, and vital winter rains are becoming more erratic. Jordanians don’t need scientists to tell them that they live in one of the world’s driest countries in the center of the planet’s most water-poor region. But addressing the problem would require cross-border cooperation, a commodity as scarce as water in the Jordan River basin shared with Israel, Palestine, Syria and Lebanon.

24- Hussein Gadain, representative of the United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) in Egypt, announced in a press conference  that a total of 99 wells are being dug in the Marsa Matrouh governorate to gain benefit from rainwater amid the water scarcity that Egypt is facing.  The project is being implemented by the Desert Research Center, which is affiliated with the Ministry of Agriculture, in cooperation with FAO. Nine wells will be dug in each of the 11 municipal areas in the governorate. Further information on EMWIS website

25- One neighbourhood in Berlin is trying to ensure that cities can become better-adapted to the increasing likelihood of extraordinary wet weather events. The theory rests on the logical foundation that cities are inherently unnatural. By smothering the earth in concrete and tarmac and loading it up with vast structures of brick, steel, and glass, cities interfere with the way nature regulates itself. The concentration of buildings, people, and activity increases temperatures – while tarmac and concrete surfaces naturally absorb, retain, and emit heat, only pushing the mercury higher. On the aquatic side of the equation, unnatural, man-built road and pavement surfaces stop any falling water absorbing into the ground and then naturally providing moisture for soil and vegetation during dryer periods, while also evaporating to provide a kind of natural air conditioning. The area of Rummelsburg in the city’s east, was built 20 years ago and serves as an exemplary model of the ‘Sponge City’ concept – ‘Stadtschwamm’ in German. Further information on EMWIS website

26- The Senate adopted the proposed law to simplify some obligations applicable to local authorities in public drinking water sector on Thursday,  26 October, 2017. Further information on EMWIS website

27- Dealing with "qualitative or quantitative disruptions" in  drinking water supply for populations is the purpose of the Orsec drinking water plan that departmental prefects are required to implement, or update, before December 31, 2020. Further information on EMWIS website

28- Nicolas Hulot, French Minister of State, Minister for the Ecological and Solidarity Transition, and Stéphane Travert, French Minister of Agriculture and Food, continue their commitment to the sustainable management of water resources in order to  reduce the pressures on water and fully involve the territories in the water management policy. They announced the launch of a cell of expertise on water management in the agricultural sector under their joint authorities serving a mission to examine ongoing projects, identify the difficulties encountered and solutions that could improve the overall system as well as to improve the quality of projects and accelerate their implementation.
