Rain water not in sewers but in the garden – the study case of the Netherlands and Polish experience

Keywords: rainwater, separation of rainwater, subsidies, EU grants, wadi, groundwater
Abstract:

The authors in the article presented information on the possibility of separating rainwater from municipal
sewage and the possibilities of its re-use. They based their considerations on the experience of municipalities
in the European Union (EU), the Dutch one in particular. The choice of the Dutch municipality of Apeldoorn
was not coincidental. Apeldoorn has the highest rainfall level in all of the Netherlands. What is more, The
Netherlands is one of those European countries that is highly advanced in water management. This is due to
the fact that it is a small country with a very dense population, which must deal with the distribution of water
resources for very populated municipalities. Moreover, 50% of this country is situated below the sea level,
which causes problems with excess water in coastal provinces. The Dutch are therefore trying to manage
water using all technical and legal possibilities. This article presents some solutions related to the separation
of rainwater from municipal sewage and the financial possibilities offered by the municipality of Apeldoorn.
The authors also shortly presented history of the use of rainwater, including Polish experiences. The authors
applied research methods based on examination of documents in the municipality of Apeldoorn and interviewed
municipal employees responsible for the project of separation rainwater from sewage.
