According to the Bank’s website, the project will co-finance part of the 2026-2029 investment programme of PWN, the fourth-largest water supply company in the Netherlands. The investments will extend and rehabilitate the drinking water distribution networks.
The project aims to:(i) adapt to climate change to ensure sufficient quantity and quality of water supply to PWN's customers, (ii) reduce water losses to increase water and energy efficiency and thus mitigate climate change, (iii) meet the demands for water supply in the service area, thereby enhancing the quality of life for the population. The Bank aims to mitigate market failures in the water sector by financing infrastructure that will make a positive impact on the environment, public health and climate, which are not fully reflected in the current water tariffs.
The investments are expected to have limited environmental and social impacts. Whenever a formal Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is required, which is not expected at the time of this publication, a copy of the Environmental (and Social) Impact Study or the Non-Technical Summary (NTS) or equivalent document will be provided to the Bank and published on its website.
or any part of the project that may impact on a nature conservation site, the promoter will be required to provide to the Bank information on the mitigating measures required to comply with the Habitats and Birds Directive.

ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF EIB
The EIB Complaints Mechanism is designed to facilitate and handle complaints against the EIB by individuals, organizations or corporations affected by EIB activities. When exercising the right to lodge a complaint against the EIB, any member of the public has access to a two-tier procedure, one internal - the Complaints Mechanism Office - and one external - the European Ombudsman. A complaint can be lodged via a written communication addressed to the Secretary General of the EIB, via email to the dedicated email address: complaints@eib.org, by completing the online complaint form available at the following address: http://www.eib.org/complaints/form via fax or delivered directly to the EIB Complaints Mechanism Division, any EIB local representation office or any EIB staff. For further details, check: http://www.eib.org/attachments/strategies/complaints_mechanism_policy_en.pdf
When dissatisfied with a complaint to the EIB Complaints Mechanism, citizens can then turn towards the European Ombudsman. A memorandum of Understanding has been signed between the EIB and the European Ombudsman establishes that citizens (even outside of the EU if the Ombudsman finds their complaint justified) can turn towards the Ombudsman on issues related to 'maladministration' by the EIB. Note that before going to the Ombudsman, an attempt must be made to resolve the case by contacting the EIB. In addition, the complaint must be made within two years of the date when the facts on which your complaint is based became known to you. You can write to the Ombudsman in any of the languages of the European Union.
