limited liability company incor-
porated in Dominica in 1997by
three engineers who worked at

and one of the company’s current Directors.“We
decided to consolidate our activities and form a
company. In 1998,we all moved from the wa-

capital, in order to be a major construction sub-
contractor of SERT, a French company contracted
for one lot of the RoseauWater and Sanitation
