Falset opens the Fontanals pipeline project for public consultation for 241,104 euros

The City Council of Falset has initially approved the project for the renovation works of the low-pressure supply pipeline in the Fontanals sector, Malanyet-industrial estate section, and the decalcification of the Sant Gregori sector, with a total budget of 241,104.81 euros, VAT included. The decision is contained in the Mayoral Resolution no. 2026-0809, dated October 21, 2026, and is published as an announcement in the Official Gazette of the Province of Tarragona on October 30, 2026 (CVE 2026-09861). The project is subject to public review for 30 business days before the bidding process for the work begins.

The announcement, consisting of a single page, includes the two mayoral agreements: the initial approval of the project and the opening of the public exhibition process. The resolution is signed by Maria Teresa Corzo Munté, acting secretary-intervenor of the corporation, with an electronic signature date of October 21, 2026, and the text is also disseminated on the municipal electronic office.

Global figure and budget breakdown

The cost of the action is detailed in the announcement with the separation between the taxable base and the tax:

• Execution budget: 199,260.17 euros.
• Applied VAT (21%): 41,844.64 euros.
• Total budget including VAT: 241,104.81 euros.

The drafting of the project was carried out by Aleix Manonellas Tomasa, municipal engineer, according to the agreement approved by the mayor’s office. The action affects the low-pressure drinking water distribution network in two sectors of the municipality: the pipeline of the Fontanals sector, in the section between Malanyet and the industrial estate, and the decalcification system of the Sant Gregori sector.

Thirty business days to submit allegations

The second agreement of the resolution submits the approved project to public information for a period of 30 business days, counted from the publication of the announcement. During this period, interested parties may submit any claims and allegations they deem appropriate.

The enabled channels for consultation and participation are:

• The insertion of the announcement in the Official Gazette of the Province of Tarragona.
• The electronic office and the City Council website, at the address www.falset.org, where the project can be consulted electronically.
• The offices of the Falset City Council, at plaça Quartera 41, 43730 Falset (Tarragona), during public office hours, where the project can also be examined in person.

A step prior to the contracting of the work

The public exhibition is the step that precedes the bidding for the work: once the deadline has passed without claims—or once any submitted claims have been resolved—the project is definitively approved and the contracting process can be initiated. The announcement does not detail bidding deadlines or the execution schedule for the works, which are not included in the published text.

The official text records the name of the sector as «Fonatanals» in the first agreement, although the denomination usually used in the municipality is Fontanals; this is a spelling detail that does not alter the scope of the action.

The intervention has a strictly municipal scope and focuses on elements of the low-pressure supply network, that is, the one that reaches the users. The renovation of a section of piping and the installation of decalcification respond to maintenance and water quality needs at two points in the district, without the announcement including technical data on the flow or the length of the pipeline.

For the residents of Falset, the publication opens the formal period to challenge or refine a project that will translate into works on public roads and an investment of 241,104.81 euros charged to the municipal budget. The term of 30 business days begins to count from the insertion in the provincial bulletin, so that allegations must be presented within this margin through the channels enabled by the city council.
