About this statute

Monsieur Pirotte Francois is granted the right to take water from the Yanza River, subject to a limit of 160 litres-seconde on average per year, until 31 October 1986. The concessionaire may occupy the public and private land described in the article, as needed to install the power plant and its related facilities, until the concession ends. Occupying the described land triggers an annual fee, calculated using the tariff for industrial land; the fee can be revised every ten years. The concession is mainly for electricity production for the concessionaire’s mining operations and for distribution in Kigali’s urban district. The average power must not exceed the level obtainable from 160 litres-second of water. The water intake, plant buildings, transformer station, and electrical/energy transport works must be located as shown on the annexed plan; the turbine water must be returned immediately downstream of the plant and must not be polluted.
