More info: Water supply and sanitation in Greece is characterized by a large diversity of settings around the country. While Athens receives its water from a series of reservoirs, some of which located 200km away, some small islands are supplied with water from tankers. Greeks have suffered from repeated droughts, including most recently in 2007. The EU supported the construction of numerous wastewater treatment plants since the 1990s in order to achieve EU environmental standards. While the wastewater discharge of the biggest cities is now in compliance with these standards, some smaller towns still lag behind.
