Veolia’s Water business in France has been awarded new contracts by the city of Saint-Pierre in Reunion Island, Frontignan and the La Barche inter-municipal wastewater service. These new contracts represent cumulative sales of €170 million. Effective from January 1, 2018, Veolia, through its Reunion Island subsidiary Runéo, is again in charge of the drinking water and wastewater public service management contracts for the city of Saint-Pierre (pop.: 82,000) for 11 years. The aim is to provide the municipality’s consumers with increasingly efficient services that are available to all and environmentally friendly. Particular attention will be paid to customer relations and consumer support. As a consequence, the new drinking water public service contract places significant emphasis on working closely with customers by providing a fully refurbished customer service center based around a consulting area. The new wastewater public service contract for the municipality of Saint-Pierre will include additional resources for wastewater collection network maintenance, and innovative technology to treat bad odors. Greater focus will be placed on material recovery, as almost 100% of the treatment sludge will now be converted into compost as part of a circular economy approach.
