Amendment to the Drinking Water Ordinance - In BAV Newsletter 02/2011

The Drinking Water Ordinance from 2001 will be adjusted in certain points to reflect newer developments. The new ordinance will come into force on November 1, 2011. In the future, there will be a limit value for uranium and a stricter value for lead. New regulations will also apply to legionella. For drinking water installations, e.g., in food businesses, suitable safety devices are now required. Link to the announcement PDF download
