    Summary

    In 2015, the sparsely populated municipality of Csikvánd submitted a successful application for support under the Hungarian Rural Development Programme (RDP). This helped to solve issues with wastewater treatment which had been present for 19 years.

    This project addressed problems with the collection, cleaning and disposing of communal waste water by installing individual domestic sewage treatment plants for each household. The resulting purified sewage water is discharged locally.

    Results

    The installation of 128 individual wastewater treatment plants on 130 properties in Csikvánd.
