That is why the European Commission decided the 25th of July to refer France to the European Court of Justice. In France, over a long period of time, the drinking water supplied to parts of the population exceeded the maximum nitrate concentration.<\/p>\n<p>The nitrate norms are set in the Drinking Water Directive to protect human health against the harmful effects of contaminated drinking water. Danish research shows nitrate in drinking water is suspected of increasing the risk of colon and rectal cancer. The study from Aarhus University showed there is a correlation between the concentration of nitrate and colon and rectal cancer even if the concentration is much smaller than the European norm of 50 milligram per litre.<\/p>\n<p>The Commission sent a letter of formal notice to France in October 2020. This was followed by a reasoned opinion in February 2023. The European Commission considers that efforts by the French authorities to fully addressed the grievances have, to date, been insufficient and is therefore referring France to the Court of Justice of the European Union.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.waternewseurope.com\/france-exceeds-nitrate-norms-in-drinking-water\/\">Water News Europe<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/5-581\/\">France in Court for exceeding nitrate norms in drinking water<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[5423,575,561,5969],"class_list":["post-133145","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-drinking-water","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-france","tag-nitrate"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/133145","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=133145"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/133145\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=133145"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=133145"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=133145"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
