Santa Catarina asks BNDES to cancel waterworks consultancy call
The government of Brazil's Santa Catarina state is calling on national development bank BNDES to cancel an announcement it made on Thursday seeking consultants interested in developing public-private partnership plans for waterworks for the state, a state government spokesperson told BNamericas.
"Santa Catarina chief of staff Nelson Serpa has sent a letter to the bank indicating that state governor Raimundo Colombo is demanding the cancelation of the procurement process," the spokesperson said.
According to the initial proposal by BNDES made on March 10, the bank was seeking technical services aimed at developing plans to achieve universal water and sanitation coverage. Details of Thursday's procurement notice [such as privatization] do not coincide with the initial proposal," added the official.
The state's current water utility is Casan.
