Machine-classified from the call text; check eligibility at the source. 23 Oct 2026

Typed facts extracted from the source documents by Scindu's grant-data review. Each value keeps its own conditions. Unknown means unstated, not zero or unlimited.

Applicant restriction

The Fund will not contract with entities that fail environmental-fee/penalty obligations or have due Fund liabilities subject to collection proceedings.

Applicant restriction

The Fund conditions loan approval and amount on the applicant’s creditworthiness and appropriate legal security for repayment.

The appropriate security is determined in the loan decision/contract; no fixed security ratio is stated here.

Applicant typeExact route 95424 applicant text.

The route is displayed under the local-government category and also carries a business category. Its body describes the eligible actor as the direct investor with legal title to the property.

The route-page category tags are catalogue categories; the operative prose supplies the direct-investor and legal-title condition. Do not read the category tags as removing that condition.

Application restriction

The May 2026 C2 financial form for entrepreneurs and other organisational units requests loan drawdown, repayment and security proposals; a description of business activity, existing loans/credits, guarantees and other off-balance-sheet obligations; a financial forecast; and the applicable financial statements and related supporting documents.

The form is specifically labelled for entrepreneurs and other organisational units, not every possible local-government applicant. Supporting requirements vary by accounting method and circumstances; the form says additional information may be requested at any stage.

Application restriction

The route links the wastewater-treatment application archive. Paper submissions must not be stapled, bound, or placed in sleeves/folders/binders; the route page also permits electronic delivery through e-Doręczenia.

The archives include older and current form revisions; use the applicable current form and annex versions at submission time.

Application restrictionGeneral rules effective 1 May 2026.

Fund-funded expenditure considered at settlement must be incurred after the application date and supported by invoices and related proof of payment.

The route page does not specify a project-specific eligible-cost end date; this general rule covers post-application documentation, subject to the contract and any more specific future rules.

Application restrictionExact route pl_wfosigw_katowice:95424.

The exact route page describes OW 1.3 as a continuous intake and the local index snapshot lists it as open. No end date, remaining allocation, or later live status is stated by the source page.

Status is as represented in the 2026-10-23 local index snapshot and route capture. Continuous intake does not prove funds remain available indefinitely.

Application restriction

For the C2 loan form’s stated supporting documents, selected public-debt certificates and bank/lender opinions must be no older than three months; the form states exceptions for low-risk regular Fund clients and for specified liquid security forms.

This is the linked application form’s documentation checklist, not a blanket applicant eligibility exclusion. The exact required documents depend on the applicant and proposed security.

Eligible project scopeExact route OW 1.3, pl_wfosigw_katowice:95424.

OW 1.3 covers construction, expansion or modernization of municipal wastewater-treatment plants in agglomerations described by the exact current route as having a population equivalent above 2,000 (RLM).

Exact current route-page wording; the 2027 priority list uses “from 2000”. Preserve that source-specific threshold difference in the separate conflict fact; do not silently treat the expressions as equivalent.

Other conditionCurrent General Rules Resolution 49/2026, Table 3 §§3.1 and 3.3.1–3.3.3; conditional general loan rules, not a route-specific promise.

A borrower may request partial remission only where the loan was not reimbursed from public funds, including EU funds, and all stated conditions are met together: the loan-funded task was completed and settled within the contractual period; planned ecological and material effects were achieved by contractual deadlines; the project durability period expired; at least 50% of the amount used was repaid on time (early repayment does not qualify to request remission); and the borrower met statutory fees and penalties and its obligations to the Fund. The Fund’s decision is discretionary, made by the competent Fund body, and cannot exceed the borrower’s actual outstanding obligations under that loan on the application date. These are general rules for partial remission only if the route’s eventual loan agreement is a remissible loan and the Fund approves remission. The exact route page does not establish that this particular loan will be remissible; no universal route entitlement is asserted.

These are general rules for partial remission only if the route’s eventual loan agreement is a remissible loan and the Fund approves remission. The exact route page does not establish that this particular loan will be remissible; no universal route entitlement is asserted.

Other conditionCurrent General Rules Resolution 49/2026, Table 3 §3.2.1(a); conditional only if this route results in a remissible loan and the Fund approves remission.

If partial remission is approved under Table 3 §3.2.1(a), it may be up to 10% of the loan amount used, capped at PLN 0.2 million; this option does not require the remitted amount to be spent on a new ecological task. This is an alternative general remission rule, not a route-specific entitlement. These are general rules for partial remission only if the route’s eventual loan agreement is a remissible loan and the Fund approves remission. The exact route page does not establish that this particular loan will be remissible; no universal route entitlement is asserted.

Other conditionCurrent General Rules Resolution 49/2026, Table 3 §3.2.1(b); conditional only if this route results in a remissible loan and the Fund approves remission.

Alternatively, if partial remission is approved under Table 3 §3.2.1(b), it may be up to 35% of the loan amount used, capped at PLN 4 million, only if the remitted amount is allocated to a new ecological task consistent with the Environmental Protection Law. The two §3.2.1 alternatives are alternatives, not additive caps. This is a general conditional rule, not a route-specific entitlement. These are general rules for partial remission only if the route’s eventual loan agreement is a remissible loan and the Fund approves remission. The exact route page does not establish that this particular loan will be remissible; no universal route entitlement is asserted.

Other condition

The beneficiary must maintain the investment’s durability for at least five years from its completion and report other-source support to the Fund at every implementation stage.

Other conditionCurrent General Rules Resolution 49/2026, Table 3 §3.4; conditional general loan rules.

The General Rules exclude remission for loans granted to carry out a task arising from an administrative order to remove environmental contamination. Applicability to a route project must be assessed from the actual task and order; this does not establish that the route itself is categorically excluded. These are general rules for partial remission only if the route’s eventual loan agreement is a remissible loan and the Fund approves remission. The exact route page does not establish that this particular loan will be remissible; no universal route entitlement is asserted.

Other conditionCurrent General Rules Resolution 49/2026, Table 3 §3.3.5; conditional general loan rules.

Filing a remission request does not suspend current payment obligations under the loan agreement. Under a separate remission agreement, the Fund returns qualifying instalments paid after the request date without interest on returned amounts. These are general rules for partial remission only if the route’s eventual loan agreement is a remissible loan and the Fund approves remission. The exact route page does not establish that this particular loan will be remissible; no universal route entitlement is asserted.

Other conditionCurrent General Rules Resolution 49/2026, Table 3 §§3.2.2–3.2.3; conditional general loan rules, not a route-specific promise.

The approved remission is reduced by any Fund grant used for the same task. The remaining remission is reduced by 15% where an agreement amendment reduces specified ecological effects for sewer connections, asbestos disposal tasks, or municipal low-emission programmes; by 30% where an amendment reduces other planned ecological effects; by 5% each time required disbursement, final settlement, or effect-confirmation documents are submitted more than 30 days late; and by 5% each time a principal instalment is more than 30 days late. These reductions apply to the remission amount after the grant offset. These are general rules for partial remission only if the route’s eventual loan agreement is a remissible loan and the Fund approves remission. The exact route page does not establish that this particular loan will be remissible; no universal route entitlement is asserted.

These are general rules for partial remission only if the route’s eventual loan agreement is a remissible loan and the Fund approves remission. The exact route page does not establish that this particular loan will be remissible; no universal route entitlement is asserted.

Other conditionPlanning status for 2027, exact OW 1.3 category.

The official priority list approved in June 2026 includes OW 1.3 among the Katowice Fund’s 2027 water-protection priorities.

A planned priority is not evidence of a specific available 2027 call budget, per-project allocation, or award.

Other condition

Fund resources are public funds, so beneficiaries must apply public-procurement law to their expenditure; public-aid rules apply where relevant.

The route links a public-aid forms archive, but the exact applicable aid regime depends on the applicant and circumstances; archive presence does not establish that aid applies.

Other condition

The exact route page identifies the financing intensity as a loan. General Fund rules separately provide several forms of support, but those general alternatives are not asserted as this route’s current selected instrument.

The route page does not state whether a particular loan under OW 1.3 is remissible or non-remissible; the interest and remission terms below are conditional general-rule branches.

Other conditionExact OW 1.3 route versus 2027 priority-list wording.

The exact route page says “above 2,000 RLM”; the official 2027 priority list describes OW 1.3 as applying to agglomerations “from 2,000 RLM”. This source-specific wording difference is unresolved.

Do not collapse “powyżej 2000” and “od 2000” into a single threshold. The exact route page governs this route’s currently displayed description; the priority-list wording is separately recorded for 2027 planning.

Other condition

The current route links Katowice signage rules: an information board is required only for construction lasting over six months; the commemorative plaque is due within 30 days after the contract-specified task-completion date.

Publicity obligations do not establish eligible publicity costs or staffing.

Staff restrictionExact route 95424; employer/project employment terms unverified.

The route materials reviewed do not establish any funded job title, hiring commitment, staff headcount or salary. Payroll eligibility remains unknown.

The archive’s 2025 general application instructions are not a current OW 1.3 cost catalogue and do not justify inferring new staffing or eligible payroll. This records a source gap rather than a categorical exclusion of all employee costs.

Eligible costGeneral eligible-cost definition; detailed OW 1.3 expenditure line eligibility remains unresolved.

Eligible costs are schedule items necessary to achieve the environmental effect and specified in the relevant schedule-filling instruction; the scope of investment performed using the beneficiary’s own forces is excluded.

The linked product page and retained application archives do not identify a separate, current OW 1.3 cost catalogue/instruction that establishes the exact eligible expenditure lines. No salaries, job titles, staff headcounts or payroll eligibility are inferred from forms or project scope.

Funding intensity, maximumGeneral rules effective 1 May 2026; exact continuous OW 1.3 route.

100 percent of eligible project costs

Maximum intensity, not a promise of a 100% award or a fixed principal amount. The Fund may offer a different form or amount after its economic analysis.

Funding intensity, maximumGeneral rules effective 1 May 2026.

100 percent of eligible project costs from Fund plus other public sources

The exception applies to bridge loans as defined in the general rules; do not use this as the route’s absolute award cap.

Grace period, maximumGeneral rules effective 1 May 2026.

18 months after contractual task-completion date

The terms do not apply to bridge loans. Actual contractual dates and repayment schedule are established by the Fund.

Loan interest, minimumGeneral rules effective 1 May 2026, conditional non-remissible loan branch.

1.5 percent per annum minimum

This rate branch is for non-remissible loans only. For public-aid cases, the Fund may use a base-rate-plus-margin method subject to the applicable minimum; the route page does not decide the aid basis or loan type.

Loan interest, minimumGeneral rules effective 1 May 2026; only if a remissible-loan structure is granted.

3 percent per annum minimum, subject to the stated municipality exception

This conditional rate is not assigned to every OW 1.3 application. The page does not state whether the specific loan is remissible, or whether a particular municipality meets the special equalisation-subsidy test.

Loan partial remission, maximum amountCurrent General Rules Resolution 49/2026, Table 3 §3.2.1(a), the 10% remission alternative; absolute cap paired with the 10% of amount-used share; general and conditional only, not a route-specific entitlement.

PLN 200,000

Conditional current General Rules Resolution 49/2026 provisions only apply if this particular route results in a remissible loan and the Fund approves remission. The exact route does not establish the eventual loan subtype. All Table 3 §3.1 conditions are cumulative: the loan-funded task is completed and settled within the contractual period; planned ecological and material effects are achieved by the contractual deadlines; project durability expires; at least 50% of the amount used is repaid on time (early repayment does not qualify); and statutory fees, penalties and Fund obligations are met. The Fund decision is discretionary and cannot exceed actual outstanding obligations on the application date. Any Fund grant for the same task offsets remission under §3.2.2 and reductions under §3.2.3 apply. The amount is the PLN 0.2 million ceiling for this alternative.

Loan partial remission, maximum amountCurrent General Rules Resolution 49/2026, Table 3 §3.2.1(b), the 35% remission alternative; absolute cap paired with the 35% of amount-used share; general and conditional only, not a route-specific entitlement.

PLN 4,000,000

Conditional current General Rules Resolution 49/2026 provisions only apply if this particular route results in a remissible loan and the Fund approves remission. The exact route does not establish the eventual loan subtype. All Table 3 §3.1 conditions are cumulative: the loan-funded task is completed and settled within the contractual period; planned ecological and material effects are achieved by the contractual deadlines; project durability expires; at least 50% of the amount used is repaid on time (early repayment does not qualify); and statutory fees, penalties and Fund obligations are met. The Fund decision is discretionary and cannot exceed actual outstanding obligations on the application date. Any Fund grant for the same task offsets remission under §3.2.2 and reductions under §3.2.3 apply. The amount is the PLN 4 million ceiling and the new-task condition for §3.2.1(b) applies.

Loan partial remission, maximum shareCurrent General Rules Resolution 49/2026, Table 3 §3.2.1(a), the 10% remission alternative; general and conditional only, not a route-specific entitlement.

10 percent of loan amount used

Conditional current General Rules Resolution 49/2026 provisions only apply if this particular route results in a remissible loan and the Fund approves remission. The exact route does not establish the eventual loan subtype. All Table 3 §3.1 conditions are cumulative: the loan-funded task is completed and settled within the contractual period; planned ecological and material effects are achieved by the contractual deadlines; project durability expires; at least 50% of the amount used is repaid on time (early repayment does not qualify); and statutory fees, penalties and Fund obligations are met. The Fund decision is discretionary and cannot exceed actual outstanding obligations on the application date. Any Fund grant for the same task offsets remission under §3.2.2 and reductions under §3.2.3 apply. This alternative does not require the forgiven amount to fund a new ecological task.

Loan partial remission, maximum shareCurrent General Rules Resolution 49/2026, Table 3 §3.2.1(b), the 35% remission alternative; general and conditional only, not a route-specific entitlement.

35 percent of loan amount used

Conditional current General Rules Resolution 49/2026 provisions only apply if this particular route results in a remissible loan and the Fund approves remission. The exact route does not establish the eventual loan subtype. All Table 3 §3.1 conditions are cumulative: the loan-funded task is completed and settled within the contractual period; planned ecological and material effects are achieved by the contractual deadlines; project durability expires; at least 50% of the amount used is repaid on time (early repayment does not qualify); and statutory fees, penalties and Fund obligations are met. The Fund decision is discretionary and cannot exceed actual outstanding obligations on the application date. Any Fund grant for the same task offsets remission under §3.2.2 and reductions under §3.2.3 apply. This alternative requires the forgiven amount to fund a new ecological task consistent with the Environmental Protection Law.

Repayment required before remission, minimumCurrent General Rules Resolution 49/2026, Table 3 §3.1(d), minimum share of amount used that must be repaid on time before a remission request; general and conditional only, not a route-specific entitlement.

50 percent of loan amount used repaid on time

Conditional current General Rules Resolution 49/2026 provisions only apply if this particular route results in a remissible loan and the Fund approves remission. The exact route does not establish the eventual loan subtype. All Table 3 §3.1 conditions are cumulative: the loan-funded task is completed and settled within the contractual period; planned ecological and material effects are achieved by the contractual deadlines; project durability expires; at least 50% of the amount used is repaid on time (early repayment does not qualify); and statutory fees, penalties and Fund obligations are met. The Fund decision is discretionary and cannot exceed actual outstanding obligations on the application date. Any Fund grant for the same task offsets remission under §3.2.2 and reductions under §3.2.3 apply. The typed value is a minimum threshold, not an amount of remission.

Loan term, maximumGeneral rules effective 1 May 2026.

240 months from contractual task-completion date, including grace

The contract sets the actual period after financial analysis and public-aid rules; minimum repayment period is 4 years. Bridge loans are excepted from these terms.
