Description
Objectives

Three-year investment programme, primarily for distribution and production facilities.

The programme includes a large number of projects to replace obselete installations, add new capacity, increase production efficiency and improve water quality. In addition, new surface water treatment technologies will be introduced.

Environmental aspects
Procurement

The investment programme will have a positive impact on the environment of the Walloon Region and the environment in general (reduction of water losses and thus protection of resources, maintenance or improvement of drinking water quality). Some components of the project may come under Directive 85/337/EEC, as amended by Directives 97/11/EC and 2003/35/EC, Annex II, and an environmental impact assessment is required. The promoter’s application of procedures complies with the corresponding directive.

Complies with EU legislation.
