[FR] Station d'épuration des eaux usées de la commune de Chinon.
À Chinon, la gestion de l'eau potable et de l’assainissement a été confiée à un prestataire, Veolia, dans le cadre d’un contrat de délégation de service public en date du 01 janvier 2010, ceci pour une durée de huit ans.
Les eaux usées des usagers sont collectées pour être amenées à la station d’épuration de St-Louans où elles font l’objet d’un traitement permettant d’éliminer la pollution reçue. Cette installation respecte ainsi l’arrêté préfectoral fixant la qualité de rejet à obtenir pour un impact minimal sur la Vienne. Les « boues » issues de l’épuration des eaux usées, font l’objet, après contrôle, d’une valorisation agricole.
