The Valencian companies could see reduced until 90% the canon of saneamiento of his bill of the water depending on the optimisation in the consumption and the quality of the waters that pour, so much to public network (sewerage) as to hydrographic basin or to maritime public domain-terrestrial, and other similar conditionings, as it remembers the Technological Institute of the Piece of furniture, Wood, Packaging and Affine (Aidima), with reason of the start the past 1 April of the campaign cuatrienal for the statement of waste water MD-301 that realizar the Public Entity of Saneamiento of Residual Waters of the Valencian Community, EPSAR.

Although this very high percentage would produce in cases very reduced, the technological centre insists in that the bonus in the canon of saneamiento depends of the coefficient of correction, that reduces the quota when it situates between the 0,9, and the 0,1, being 1 the neutral value that usually applies to the companies that only do use of sanitary ware water.

In this way, underneath of the coefficient 1, the companies would begin to reduce his bill, of the same way that from 1 would begin to increase it until a value 8 or 10, depending on the cases. In this sense, the canon on the water would go multiplying, being 2 the double, 3 the triple and like this successively.

Technician of Aidima realizar an analysis of chromatography gases-masses (GC-MS) to detect volatile organic compounds in waste water.

Simultaneously, the legislation contemplates for a specific group of companies a bonus of 45% of the quota of consumption of the canon of saneamiento “in the part that grave pertinent consumptions of waters treated in public installations of saneamiento and purification, supplied directly by EPSAR”, signals the norm, and whenever reutilice at least 70% of the water treated for the productive activity, and fulfil , in matter of permission or granting of water debugged, the had in the applicable sectorial rule.

The legislative regulation is established in the Law 2/1992, of 26 March, of saneamiento of the waste water of the Valencian Community, that has seen modified and derogated determinate articles along the time elevates the normative complexity, but the greater difficulty establishes in the corrector coefficient that determines the canon or fiscal tax to devengar in the receipt of the water.

Is thus that the Aidima has initiated an informative campaign of sensitisation to the Valencian companies so that they improve the quality of the waste water and look for a greater efficiency in the consumption to diminish this coefficient. In this way, the Technological Institute centres his attention in helping to the companies to reach an optimum level of purification and consumption by means of analysis of waste water and advice in the systems of purification more suitable.

The result of the analyses for the evaluation of the compulsory statement of waste water for the Valencian companies, and that require roughly a week of process, have to be inside the margins established by the legislation and be transacted after filling the model MD-301. The statement of production of waste water will give beginning tomorrow 1 April.

In this sense, Aidima is centre accredited by ENAC for essays in the environingingmental sector (13/HIM 1416), is certified with the ISO 17025 on quality of laboratories of essay, and recognised by Ministry of Agriculture, Feeding and Environingingment like ‘entity collaborator of waste water for poured to hydraulics public domain'. It is therefore official laboratory for analysis of waste water, and is recognised by EPSAR like laboratory in this matter.
