A minimum of BGN 12 bn will be needed for investments in the water supply and sewerage sector. However, in order for the country to implement the relevant European standards, some BGN 43 bn should be allocated. The newly prepared National Water Sector Strategy by 2035 provides solutions to the problems related to the water supply and sewerage in the country.

“Better control over the management of dams and other facilities in the water sector is one of the goals of the National Water Sector Strategy,” stated for the Bulgarian National Radio Ivelina Vassileva, Deputy Minister of Environment and Water.
