Abstract

This chapter describes the state of water and wastewater management in Poland in the years 1999–2015. The study presents the state of Poland’s water resources, the structure of their use and the amount of financial outlays allocated to water and sewage management. The analysis was based on statistical data obtained from the Central Statistical Office (GUS). The basic infrastructure related to water and sewage management is the water supply and sewerage network together with sewage treatment plants. The results of the analysis show that availability of water and sewerage infrastructure has significantly improved in recent years, however, in some provinces it is still not sufficient. Major changes in the financing of water and wastewater management resulted from Poland’s accession to the European Union which increased the possibility of financing activities that led to the improvement of wastewater treatment.
