Various European regions are undertaking significant investments to modernize water and wastewater management systems. In Acri, Italy, a contract worth approximately €4.23 million was signed for the third phase of a sewage and purification system optimization project. This initiative is part of a larger five-lot plan intended to address European Union infringement procedures regarding water purification in the Calabria region. In Croatia, the government has awarded 23 contracts for water and wastewater infrastructure modernization, totaling more than 274 million euros. Prime Minister Andrej Plenković and Minister of Environmental Protection Marija Vučković presented these agreements in Zagreb, noting that 158 million euros are provided through non-refundable grants. Key projects include a 213.9 million euro water and sewage system for the island of Vir and a 3.2 million euro project for the Zaton settlement in Šibenik. Furthering these efforts, the Croatian Ministry of Environmental Protection and Green Transition has approved additional non-refundable grants under the National Recovery and Resilience Plan and the Competitiveness and Cohesion Program. In the Konavle municipality, the Konavle Communal Company secured funding for a sewage and water supply network project in Ljuta, valued at approximately 3.2 million euros, with 80 percent financed by grants. Additionally, the City of Zabok received 3.6 million euros from the European Regional Development Fund to remediate the Gubaševo non-hazardous waste landfill, a project aimed at promoting a circular economy and mitigating environmental impacts. In Gospić, Croatia, the Environmental Protection and Energy Efficiency Fund has selected a consortium of contractors to remediate 4,500 tons of scattered waste, including hazardous materials, near the former PPK Velebit silos. The contract, valued at 7.87 million euros excluding VAT, requires the waste to be removed within 13 months and processed for energy recovery abroad. Franolić projekti will supervise the works.
