Tuca Zbarcea & Asociatii has successfully represented WTE Wassertechnik before Romania's National Council for Solving Complaints and a court of appeal in several disputes related to awarding the works contracts for the Cluj-Salaj water pipeline.
According to Tuca Zbarcea & Asociatii, "the award of these works contract each gave rise to two sets of separate disputes, which were conducted swiftly before the Romanian National Council for the Resolution of Complaints (CNSC) / the competent Court of Appeal. WTE Wassertechnik had its claims admitted and the contracting authority proceeded to declare it as a successful bidder and sign the contracts." As a result, the company was awarded two separate sections of the Cluj-Salaj water pipeline, with the contracts amounting to RON 300 million.
"The Cluj – Salaj pipeline is likely the longest drinking water pipeline in Romania, with a length of over 100 kilometers," the firm informed. "It is crucial to providing the best-quality drinking water to the inhabitants of the two counties. The European Union Cohesion Fund is financing up to 85% of the total investment."
WTE Wassertechnik is a German water infrastructure company. The company’s service portfolio includes the planning and construction of plants for the supply of drinking water and disposal of wastewater, as well as thermal waste treatment for the production of heat and energy.
The Tuca Zbarcea & Asociatii team was led by Partner Dan Cristea.
