Global fresh water scarcity and empirical studies on the bad
quality of water in Europe made the Community aware of the need to
protect this vital resource. Since water has no frontiers, the
Member States decided to endeavour a common approach in its
protection. It is the aim of this treatise to show the Community's
policy and legislation in water protection, which has been evolving
since its origins in the Seventies throughout the last decades. The
most ambitious approach which has been undertaken by the Community
in this field of law lately, is the Water Framework Directive. Its
provisions and its implementation into national law by the Member
States (Austria, France) are at the centre of this treatise. Common
challenges and the way the Member States deal with them are
presented. The common approach results fruitful which is important,
since - in the end - a stringent transposition of the existing and
future rules set by the Community on behalf of water protection
will respond to the claim future generations have on fresh water.
