    Description
    Objectives

    The project consists of a series of investments to expand bulk water supply, build/upgrade potable water treatment plants and distribution networks, extend the sewerage network and construct/refurbish wastewater treatment plants in the area.

    The project aims at providing more reliable water supply and improved sewerage and treatment services in the area in order to comply with EU water directives.

    Environmental aspects
    Procurement

    The project should bring the reliability and quality of services in line with standards imposed by EU Directives (91/271, 98/83). Its health and environmental impacts appear positive.

    An international tender was launched in 1998 for the selection of a private sector partner to take a minority equity participation in a public sector majority-owned management company. A consortium of private companies was selected out of six bids and Nuove Acque SpA, the management company, was incorporated in March 1999. The Promoter will be required to comply with EC Procurement Directives.
