N1 - Funding Information: The entire project is coordinated by the University of Tuebingen supported by the Regional Commission Tuebingen. In cooperation with the University of Tuebin-gen Ökonsult Stuttgart is responsible for the identification of target groups and communication channels suitable for the publication of the project, connections to local press and information media and the organization of information events for stakeholders and the public. Major aims of the communication are (1) raising the awareness in the public for water protection and problems related to micropollutants and pathogen release into surface waters, (2) investigation of the readiness of the public to accept additional dues for this purpose, and (3) dissemination of the project´s aims and results to the scientific community, stakeholders and the public. Funding Information: The project SchussenAktivplus is funded by the Federal Ministry for Education and Research (BMBF) and cofounded by the Ministry of Environment Baden-Württemberg. In addition, Jedele & Partner GmbH, Ökonsult GbR, the city of Ravensburg, the AZV Mariatal and the AV Unteres Schussental financially contribute to the project. SchussenAktivplus is connected to the BMBF action plan “Sustainable water management (NaWaM)” and is integrated in the BMBF frame programme “Research for sustainable development FONA”. It is part of the the funding measure “Risk Management of Emerging Compounds and Pathogens in the Water Cycle (RiSKWa)” introduced to the public by Huckele & Track [44]. Contract period: 1/ 2012 to 12/2014, Funding number: 02WRS1281A-L.

N2 - The project focuses on the efficiency of combined technologies to reduce the release of micropollutants and bacteria into surface waters via sewage treatment plants of different size and via stormwater overflow basins of different types. As a model river in a highly populated catchment area, the river Schussen and, as a control, the river Argen, two tributaries of Lake Constance, Southern Germany, are under investigation in this project. The efficiency of the different cleaning technologies is monitored by a wide range of exposure and effect analyses including chemical and microbiological techniques as well as effect studies ranging from molecules to communities.
