Watermark Campaign

The “Watermark Campaign” is a program of the Ministry for the Environment that provides financial support to the Saarland municipalities in their efforts to separate non-contaminated rainwater from waste water that needs to be cleaned. Since the watermark campaign came into force in 1996, around 400 projects have been subsidized with a total of around 65 million. As part of this evaluation, it was systematically examined how the project was accepted by those involved on site and where problems arise. The results of the evaluation should be used to redesign the watermark campaign.
