Is the drinking water of the Würzburg population in danger? Why the big protected area should come now

It could be quick now. If things go “sportively”, the 66 square kilometer and thus second largest drinking water protection area in Bavaria in the west of Würzburg could already be designated in the spring of 2023. Mara Hellstern, head of the environmental office at the Würzburg district office, said this at the May meeting of the environmental committee. The protected area could affect large-scale projects and construction projects in the entire region. But things could also go completely differently, District Administrator Thomas Eberth (CSU) dampens expectations in his function as head of the district administration authority.
