municipal and industrial water treatment industry.


"We are happy to announce these new contracts today and are confident that they
represent only the beginning of the results we could collect over time from the
recent increase in bidding activity that we have been experiencing across the
entire company" stated Frederic Dugre, President and CEO of H2O Innovation Inc.


Municipal drinking water production contracts

H2O Innovation has been awarded several contracts for the design, manufacturing
and delivery of municipal drinking water systems and process equipment in Quebec
(Canada) and Colorado (United States). In Quebec the municipalities of
Sainte-Irenee and Sainte-Jeanne-d'Arc have selected H2O Innovation to design,
manufacture and deliver custom designed high performance NanH2OFiltration
nanofiltration systems including pre-treatment for the production of drinking
water from surface waters. The NanH2OFiltration systems designed by H2O
Innovation are certified Proven Solutions (technologie eprouvee) by the Quebec
Government's Department of Sustainable Development, Environment and Parks. This
certification proves the efficiency and the reliability of the NanH2Ofiltration
surface water treatment system and enables the Company to broaden its sales in
the Quebec municipal market. H2O Innovation is the first player in the industry
to receive this certification in Quebec for the treatment of surface water.


In the United States, H2O Innovation has signed a contract to augment the
capacity of the existing reverse osmosis system of the City of Las Animas,
Colorado. Through a general contractor, the City has contracted H2O Innovation
to design, supply and supervise the commissioning of the second stage of an
existing single stage reverse osmosis system. The city's existing system was
initially supplied by Membrane Systems, now a subsidiary of H2O Innovation, in
1996.


Industrial process water contracts

H2O Innovation has also recently signed contracts to supply reverse osmosis
systems and process equipments for the production of industrial process water to
clients active in the energy sector. These systems-of different capacities-will
be manufactured and delivered to clients located in the United States, in
Canada, as well as in Algeria. H2O Innovation has been progressively stepping up
its business development efforts over the last years in Algeria, Northern Africa
and the Middle East-fast growing markets for water treatment systems in general
and reverse osmosis systems in particular.
