Summary sheet
Construction of a multi-purpose urban waste processing centre in Issy-les-Moulineaux, Paris region.
The project forms part of the departmental household and similar waste elimination plan drawn up by the public authorities in application of current legislation. It consists of replacing the existing 40-year old processing centre with a state-of-the-art facility meeting the latest EU environmental standards.
The project’s design complies with EU environmental directives, in particular Directive 2000/76/EC on waste incineration. Owing to the facility’s proximity to densely populated residential areas, the regional authorities have required the design to meet the strictest atmospheric emissions standards, which are well below the thresholds laid down by national and Community law.
SYCTOM is subject to EU procurement directives. All works contracts for schemes financed by the Bank will be let in accordance with EU law.
