Communauté de Communes Haut Chemin-Pays de Pange

What Communauté de Communes Haut Chemin-Pays de Pange does

The Communauté de Communes Haut Chemin-Pays de Pange (CCHCPP) is a French Établissement Public de Coopération Intercommunale (EPCI) created on January 1, 2017 by prefectoral merger of the Communautés de Communes du Haut Chemin and du Pays de Pange. Headquartered in Pange, Moselle, it serves 28 member communes in the Grand Est region through an administrative staff of approximately 15 employees, operating under Articles L5214-1 to L5214-29 of the CGCT. Its service portfolio spans statutory intercommunal competencies including waste management, economic development, land-use planning (SCoTAM), water and flood management (GEMAPI), climate-air-energy planning (PCAET), and ecological corridor protection (Trame Verte et Bleue), alongside optional services such as early childhood support (Relais Petite Enfance), France Services proximity administration, tourism promotion, a community music school, housing renovation assistance, and connected public-safety infrastructure (Géoocoeur panels).

The organization's operational backbone is a household waste management system built around RFID-chipped bins (120L residual and 240L recyclable) that enable usage-based billing, a three-site network of community déchèteries (Courcelles-Chaussy, Courcelles-sur-Nied, Avancy-Sainte-Barbe), and the ECO-CITO online portal for resident account management and déchèterie vehicle registration. Distribution to residents is delivered through the Pange headquarters, two France Services antennas (Vigy and Courcelles-Chaussy), the RPE office at Avancy-Sainte-Barbe, monthly SOLIHA/CALM housing permanence, and the déchèterie network. Programs extend into the agricultural sector via the 2025-2029 Programme de Services Environnementaux (PSE) and into biodiversity via hedgerow planting, nest-box installations with the LPO, and pedagogical animations reaching nearly 1,500 students.

CCHCPP funds its operations through the Fiscalité Professionnelle Unique (FPU) — comprising the unique professional tax, property tax add-ons, and service fees — supplemented by DGF and subsidies from the State, Region, Department, Europe, and Agence de l'eau Rhin-Meuse. The pricing model for waste services is transitioning to a hybrid structure effective May 1, 2025, with a fixed component scaled to household size (€90 to €231 annually for individuals) and a variable component priced per bin collection (€1.00 to €2.00 for 120L-240L household bins, up to €14.00 per lift for 770L professional bins), billed on a quadrimestrial cycle. Customer segments include residents of all 28 communes, low-income homeowners eligible for ANAH 'Habiter Mieux' subsidies (with an additional €500 CCHCPP top-up), families using RPE childcare services, and farmers enrolled in PSE environmental contracts.

Broad incumbents

• Veolia: International environmental services group with a major waste-management division including collection, sorting, incineration, and material recovery. Directly comparable to CCHCPP's waste and water (GEMAPI) mandates but at global scale and as a private operator serving municipal clients, unlike CCHCPP which is itself a municipal authority.
• Séché Environnement: French-headquartered waste management and environmental services group providing collection, treatment, and hazardous waste handling. Comparable on the household and industrial waste handling activities that CCHCPP coordinates through its déchèteries and collection routes.
• PAPREC Group: Leading French recycling and waste management group operating collection, sorting, and recovery infrastructure. Comparable to CCHCPP on the recyclable materials stream (bac jaune 240L) and broader household waste recovery value chain.
• SUEZ: Global environmental services and waste management operator active across waste collection, treatment, and recovery. Comparable to CCHCPP on the waste-management service line but operates at vastly larger scale and across many geographies, whereas CCHCPP is a local public authority focused on its 28 communes.

Others

• Domitys: Operator of senior serviced residences in France offering exclusive residency offers to CCHCPP inhabitants. Comparable as a thematic partner on the senior-services component of CCHCPP's service à la personne portfolio, though operating a private residential model rather than a public mandate.
• Hekatech: Mosellan technology company producing the Géocoeur connected cardiac-arrest alert panels that CCHCPP has deployed across 5 communes. Comparable as a regional technology partner enabling smart-city / IoT public-safety infrastructure in small communes.
