Wahnbachtalsperrenverband

The Wahnbachtalsperrenverband is a corporation under public law with its headquarters in Siegburg. The association was founded in 1953 and is mainly responsible for the drinking water supply of the Bonn/Rhein-Sieg/Ahr region[1][3]. Its main task is the procurement and provision of drinking water for around 800,000 inhabitants in the region, including the cities of Bonn and Siegburg as well as the Rhein-Sieg district[1][5].

• Drinking Water Supply: The association mainly feeds its water from the Wahnbachtalsperre, which was built between 1955 and 1957[3][4].
• Flood Protection: The dam also serves to regulate the water flow and prevent flooding in the lower Wahnbachtal and in the Sieg[3][4].

The Wahnbachtalsperrenverband is committed to ensuring a reliable and safe drinking water supply. Another priority is environmental protection and the integration of employees with disabilities[5].

• Environmental Protection: The association strives to preserve nature and species conservation in the catchment area of the Wahnbachtalsperre while ensuring an efficient drinking water supply[2][4].
• Inclusion and Health: The Wahnbachtalsperrenverband has been awarded for its exemplary company integration management (BEM). It promotes the health of its employees and offers an above-average employment rate for people with disabilities[5].

The association is continuously committed to the conversion and renovation of its infrastructure. For example, the Wahnbachtalsperre was extensively renovated in 2008 to ensure the safety and efficiency of the plant[3].
