Description	Amsterdam Water Supply has operated in the Amsterdam Dune Area since 1853. Salt-water intrusion due to over-exploitation of the area made Artificial Recharge necessary, and this has been applied since 1957, currently producing 60% of the drinking water of the capital. The river Rhine water is pre-treated before recharge. This pre-treatment was improved in 1974, due to which the 40 recharge ponds have to be cleaned once every 20 years. Experience showed that some polar micropollutants may pass through the soil and consequently an ozone and activated carbon post-treatment was considered necessary and implemented in 1995. In the last two decades ecological issues have become of utmost political importance and even dominate water management. This implies remodelling of recharge areas and operations to optimise the recharge systems with respect to the needs of flora and fauna. Sustainability is currently the most important item of research. Book Name: Management of Aquifer Recharge for Sustainability
