    1.

    On 3 July 2009, the Commission received a notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1) by which the undertaking Lyonnaise des Eaux (France) controlled by GDF Suez (France) acquires within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Council Regulation exclusive control of the whole of the undertakings Société des Eaux du Nord (France), Société Provençale Des Eaux (France), Société d'Exploitation du Réseau d'Assainissement de Marseille (France), Société des Eaux de Versailles et de Saint-Cloud (France), Société Martiniquaise des Eaux (France) and Société Guyanaise des Eaux (France) by way of exchanges of shares.

    2.

    The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:

    —

    for Lyonnaise des Eaux: water collection, treatment and supply,
