Inauguration of the Wissembourg waste-water treatment plant
May 2015The Wissembourg cross-border wastewater treatment plant was inaugurated on 18 April 2015, an event attended by a number of elected representatives of the area.
The cross-border aspect was openly stressed by Christian Gliech, mayor of Wissembourg: “Here, French-German friendship has for a long time been no longer a symbol, but well and truly a day-to-day reality. Water knows no borders, and now the cycle is completed, as from its production to its treatment we have been able to join forces.” The contribution of the German local authorities amounts to 2 million euros; funding was also obtained from the Interreg programme.
