FCC Aqualia
increases
its business in Catalonia
Roda de Ter
(Barcelona)
La Pobla de Montornès
(Tarragona)
Worth more than 9 million euros, this is
the first contract awarded in the Osona
region in north-east Catalonia.
End-to-end water management
contributes 16 million euros
worth of backlog.
The City Council of Roda de Ter (Barcelona province) awarded
FCC Aqualia a contract for managing the Municipal Water De-
partment of this industrial city with more than 6,000 inhabitants,
in Plana de Vic, next to the River Ter. The 15-year contract, which
can be extended up to 25 years in 5-year consecutive terms, re-
presents a backlog of 9 million euros.
Thanks to this contract in this part of the province, FCC Aqualia
increases its business in Barcelona where it already operates in se-
ven cities and towns providing services to a population of 250,000
which, in the summer months, increases to half a million.
Josep María Santamaría, the mayor of La Pobla de Montornès,
and Jordi Aguilera, head of FCC Aqualia’s Catalonia and Aragón
branch office, signed a concession contract at the city council
whereby the company will be providing supply and sanitation ser-
vices over the next 25 years.
The contract represents 16 million euros backlog and bolsters FCC
Aqualia’s positioning in Catalonia where the company recently was
awarded a water supply contract in Roda de Ter (Barcelona). In
the past year, the company also extended its contract in Lleida,
increased its field of action in Pinyana, upgraded its waste water
treatment contract in Lleida, and also extended the contracts in
other Catalan cities such as Girona, Térmens, and Almacelles.
