2009 highlights
MOROCCO
ONEP, Morocco’s national water agency, awarded
Sade the contract to supply water to the cities of
Benguerir and Skhour Rhamna from the Al Massira
reservoir. This entails 201,247 cubic meters of
earthworks, the installation of 23,170 meters of cast
iron mains and the construction of 129 manholes.
Sade has been active in Morocco since 2002 and
already has a good track record there following
several water and wastewater projects in Khemisset,
and the water supply network between Rabat and
Casablanca in 2008 and in Agadir in 2009.
FRANCE
The city of La Roche-sur-Yon
has renewed its public service management
contract with Veolia Water, signing a 12-year
contract for its water and wastewater services.
The city asked us to support its sustainable
development drive by finding optimized
eco-friendly solutions that would enable it to
reduce the environmental footprint of its public
services. Veolia Water will use its expertise to focus
on major environmental issues like combating
climate change by reducing greenhouse gas
emissions, preserving water resources, developing
responsible water production and consumption
methods, and sustainably managing the city’s
technical assets.
AUSTRALIA
The first advanced water
recycling plant in the Western
Corridor project,
one of the world’s largest recycling
infrastructure projects, was completed
and its operation entrusted to Veolia Water.
In 2009, over 18,000 megaliters of recycled
water were supplied to the region’s two
largest electrical power plants, which
are now no longer dependent on local
reservoirs for their water supply.
