Uhlaziyo loPhuhliso ngoSeptemba 2026

USeptemba 2026 uzisa uphuhliso olubalulekileyo kwishishini lokunyanga amanzi. Ukususela kutshintsho kwimithetho yamanzi yase-US ukuya kwingqwalasela ekhulayo kwi-PFAS, ukusetyenziswa kwamanzi kwiziko ledatha, kunye nomgaqo-nkqubo wokusingqongileyo waseYurophu, imeko-bume yokulawula iyaqhubeka nokutshintsha.

Nazi izinto ezine ezibalulekileyo ekufuneka ziqwalaselwe.

1. Imithetho ye-US WOTUS iphantsi koHlaziyo

I-US Ukhuseleko lweNdalo I-Arhente (EPA) kunye ne-US Army Corps of Engineers zipapashe isindululo esongezelelweyo ngoSeptemba sokuqokelela izimvo ezongezelelweyo kwinkcazo ye“Amanzi ase-United States” (i-WOTUS) phantsi koMthetho waManzi acocekileyo.

Esi siphakamiso singatshintsha ukuba yeyiphi imilambo, imilambo, iindawo ezimanzi, kunye namanye amanzi aphantsi kolawulo lukarhulumente. Ixesha lokuphawula uluntu livuliwe kude kube ngumhla we-9 ka-Okthobha, 2026.

Kwabo baphuhlisi bemizi-mveliso kunye nabaphuhlisi beziseko zophuhliso, utshintsho kwi-WOTUS lunokuchaphazela iimfuno zemvume kunye nokuthotyelwa kokusingqongileyo.

2. I-PFAS Isaqhubeka nokuba yingxaki ephambili yamanzi amdaka

I-PFAS iyaqhubeka nokutsala ingqalelo kwiindlela zokucocwa kwamanzi amdaka kunye nolawulo lodaka.

I-EPA iyaqhubeka nomsebenzi wayo kwi-PFAS, kuquka amanyathelo anxulumene ne-PFOA kunye ne-PFOS kwi-biosolids kunye Amanzi amdaka kwimizi-mvelisoIngxelo yakutshanje ikwagxininise ukulibaziseka okuchaphazela uphando lukarhulumente oluyilelwe ukuchonga ukukhutshwa kwePFAS kwimithombo yemizi-mveliso.

Kwabasebenzi bamanzi amdaka, i-PFAS iseyeyona nto ibalulekileyo ekufuneka iqwalaselwe unyango lwangaphambi kwemizi-mveliso, unyango lwamanzi amdaka, ulawulo lodaka, kunye nokusetyenziswa kwakhona kwamanzi.

3. Ukusetyenziswa kwamanzi kwiziko ledatha kuyaphononongwa ngakumbi

Ukukhula ngokukhawuleza kwe-AI kunye namaziko edatha kudala umngeni omtsha wolawulo lwamanzi.

ETexas, amanyathelo amatsha abhengezwe ngoSeptemba afuna abasebenzisi bamanzi abakhulu, kuquka namaziko edatha, ukuba bathobele iimfuno zengxelo yokusetyenziswa kwamanzi. Ukusilela ukubonelela ngolwazi olufunekayo kunokubangela izohlwayo zomthetho kwaye kuchaphazele imvume yokusingqongileyo.

Oku kudala ingxoxo ekhulayo yemarike malunga Unyango lwamanzi lweZiko leDatha, Unyango lwamanzi amdaka, uLawulo lwamanzi apholisayo, kunye nokusetyenziswa kwakhona kwamanzi.

4. Imithetho YaseYurophu Yamanzi Nokusingqongileyo Iyaqhubeka Nokuguquka

EYurophu, imithetho yokusingqongileyo isabalulekile kwiiprojekthi zoshishino. Uphuhliso lwakutshanje olujikeleze utshintsho olucetywayo kwimithetho yokusingqongileyo ye-EU luphakamise inkxalabo phakathi kwemibutho yokusingqongileyo malunga nefuthe elinokubakho ekukhuselweni kwamanzi kunye nokujonga iiprojekthi.

Kwamashishini afana ne ukumbiwa kwemigodi, izinyithi, imveliso, kunye neziseko zophuhliso, ulawulo lwamanzi amdaka kunye nokuthobela imithetho yokusingqongileyo kusaxhomekeke kakhulu kuphuhliso lweprojekthi.

Oko Kuthethwa Yile Nto Kwishishini Lokucoca Amanzi

Kwiimarike ezahlukeneyo, indlela esiya icaca ngakumbi:

Ulawulo olungcono lwamanzi, ulawulo oluqinileyo lwamanzi amdaka, ukubuyiswa kwezixhobo, kunye nokusetyenziswa kwakhona kwamanzi kuya kuba yinto ebalulekileyo kwiiprojekthi zoshishino.

Kwiinkampani zonyango lwamanzi kunye nabaphuhlisi beeprojekthi, ukugcina umkhondo wotshintsho lwemithetho kubaluleke kakhulu njengokuvavanya ubuchwepheshe bonyango.
