Interim report shows first positive developments regarding micropollutants in the Rhine
In December 2025, the ICPR published its first interim report on the monitoring of discharges of micropollutants in the Rhine river basin. Despite positive developments, particularly in wastewater treatment plants, further efforts are needed in all emission areas in order to achieve the target set in the ‘Rhine 2040’ programme.
