Communauté de Communes du Bassin d'Aubenas

What Communauté de Communes du Bassin d'Aubenas does

The Communauté de Communes du Bassin d'Aubenas (CCBA) is a French public intercommunal structure (Établissement public de coopération intercommunale, EPCI) headquartered at 16 route de la Manufacture Royale, Ucel, Ardèche, France. It was formed on January 1, 2017 through the merger of the former Communauté de Communes du Pays d'Aubenas-Vals (CCPAV) and the Communauté de Communes du Vinobre, consolidating 28 communes in the Ardèche department of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. The entity provides a portfolio of public services including waste collection and management, non-collective sanitation (SPANC), public transportation (Tout'enbus), urban planning (PLUI since January 2018), economic development support, cultural facilities (Médiathèque Jean Ferrat, Centre Aquatique l'Hippocampe), early childhood services, housing assistance, fiber optic deployment, and environmental transition initiatives (PCAET, TEPos, Cadastre Solaire). Its operational footprint spans approximately 2,200 businesses and ~15,500 jobs across the Bassin d'Aubenas territory, recognized as the economic hub of southern Ardèche.

The CCBA is governed by a community council (conseil communautaire) with Mr Max Tourvieilhe serving as President, supported by a 21-employee administrative team distributed across the headquarters and 5 France Services multi-service guichets. The revenue model relies on local taxation instruments (Cotisation Foncière des Entreprises, Taxe d'Enlèvement des Ordures Ménagères, Taxe GEMAPI, Taxe de Séjour), state and intergovernmental grants, and service fees including subscription pricing for the L'Espélidou business incubator (€189.66 HT/month for typical 17.33 m² offices; €412.18 HT/month for typical 104.86 m² workshops). The core technology stack is a public administration and intercommunal coordination services platform with web-based service delivery, interactive mapping (Carte Interactive), and online tax collection, but no disclosed AI/ML capabilities or proprietary technology assets. The entity holds no patents, has not raised external funding, and has no private equity or venture capital ownership. Distribution relies on direct service centers and partner organizations including SIDOMSA (waste), SEBA/SIAE (sanitation), EPTB Ardèche (watershed), CCI Ardèche, CMA Ardèche, Merveillous Agri, Le Palabre, and ALEC 07.
