Upgrading and extension of the collection system and upgrading of a waste water treatment plant in Plovdiv, Bulgaria's second largest city. The project has been prepared by JASPERS and an application for co-financing from EU grants under the OP Environment has been submitted to the EU Commission.
The project aims at protection of public health and the environment from water pollution, while maintaining a balanced development of water supply and sanitation with focus on wastewater collection and treatment, as well as safeguarding the financial and operational viability of the water company.

Procurement procedures will be consistent with the Bulgarian public procurement law that is transposing the relevant EU public procurement directives.
