Montpellier Méditerranée Métropole is opening a public consultation on the transformation project of the AMETYST site, its household waste treatment facility located in Saint-Jean-de-Védas, until January 12, 2027.

This initiative is part of an environmental permit application under the "Industrie verte" law. It allows the public to consult the file and submit their observations, questions, and proposals regarding the site's modernization.
The project's objectives include improving environmental performance and safety, valorizing new waste streams, reducing landfilling, producing local energy (biomethane, heat, electricity), and decreasing odor nuisances.
Several participation methods are available: an online register at www.democratie-active.fr/consultation-ametyst/, via email at consultation-ametyst@democratie-active.fr, by mail to Montpellier Méditerranée Métropole, or in person at the Métropole's reception hall.
A closing public meeting will be held on Wednesday, January 6, 2027, at 6 PM in the Salle Fernand Pelloutier, at the headquarters of Montpellier Méditerranée Métropole (15 place Zeus, Montpellier).
The inquiry commission will also hold public sessions at the Mairie of Saint-Jean-de-Védas on Monday, November 16, 2026, from 2 PM to 5 PM, and on Tuesday, December 8, 2026, from 9 AM to 12 PM.
