HEO H2O Innovation Inc

H2O Innovation Inc. ("H2O Innovation" or the "Company") (TSX
VENTURE:HEO)(ALTERNEXT:MNEMO:ALHEO) announces it has been awarded four new
drinking water treatment and wastewater treatment contracts in the United States
and Canada. These contracts totaling CAN$5.1 million bring the Company's sales
backlog to CAN$24.6 million as at March 16, 2009. By winning these contracts,
H2O Innovation reaffirms its enviable position in the North American municipal
water treatment industry.


H2O Innovation has been awarded two municipal drinking water contracts in the
United States. First, the Alameda County Water District has selected H2O
Innovation to expand the capacity of its existing desalination facility, from 5
MGD to 10 MGD. H2O Innovation's performance on the design and supply of the
original system in 2001 was a key factor in securing the contract. Under the new
contract, the Company will design and furnish equipment and components for two
reverse osmosis units that will be delivered to the District's existing Newark
Desalination Facility. Water treated by this system will be blended with well
water and chlorinated prior to distribution for potable use.


The second municipal drinking water contract signed by H2O Innovation involves
the design, fabrication and supply of water filtration process equipment for a
two-train reverse osmosis system with a combined capacity of 1.67 MGD for the
Clay Center Public Utilities Commission, Kansas, to treat ground water for
potable use. The equipment will be shipped fully shop assembled from our
factory. H2O Innovation's solid list of reference installations in the municipal
drinking water treatment domain, along with its expertise in developing
state-of-the-art custom solutions were essential assets in obtaining these two
contracts.


H2O Innovation has also signed two wastewater treatment systems contracts, one
in Canada and one in the United States. Through its full-service office in
Calgary, Alberta, H2O Innovation has been awarded a contract to build a 20,000
GPD wastewater treatment system for the Elinor Lake Resort property development
in Lac La Biche County, Alberta, with the possibility of building a second phase
to double the system's capacity. In the United States, H2O Innovation will
deliver a 10,000 GPD wastewater treatment system using the proprietary
Bio-Wheel(TM) technology to the Moss-Nuckols Elementary School in Louisa County,
Virginia. H2O Innovation's systems were selected for their small footprint, ease
of installation, and low operating costs.


Since its acquisition of Wastewater Technologies, Inc. in April 2008, H2O
Innovation has continued the development of its wastewater treatment offering
and to this end has recently expanded its sales network to cover additional U.S.
states such as Texas, Oklahoma, Alabama and New York.


"Winning these contracts-which total CAN$ 5.1 million-reasserts the soundness of
H2O Innovation's business model and demonstrates that we are well positioned to
reap our share of the invigorated municipal water infrastructure market. None of
these contracts could have been signed without the combined skills and
experience of H2O Innovation's business units and their successful integration
into a complete membrane technology expert" stated Frederic Dugre, President and
CEO.
