Welcome

Welcome to the EPF Nord-Pas de Calais' new website.

The EPF is a technical tool dedicated to the land strategies of local communities, the region and the state. It draws a large part of its resources from local taxation. For these reasons and for the sake of transparency, the EPF wishes to share and explain its action, its means of intervention and its assessments.

To make its action more intelligible, the EPF decided to redesign its website to increase its simplicity, exhaustiveness and accessibility. This new site, built around four main topics, was designed as a didactic and informative tool.

The first topic, entitled "Who we are" gives a broad overview of the Etablissement's activity and describes the Board of Governors and the EPF Nord-Pas de Calais' personal and financial structure.

The second topic, "What we do" describes the EPF's activities in four main questions: "What", "Why", "For whom" and "How".

The third part, "Our operations", lists the operations carried out by the EPF Nord-Pas de Calais since its creation. Creating such an exhaustive list requires the input of a lot of data. This task will be completed in December 2009. Until all data has been entered, your research may not produce any results. In that case, please visit our site again soon.

Finally, the fourth part of the site is dedicated to "Our studies and research". It presents the Workshop on land methods and a list of our partners and also contains a catalogue of publications drafted or supported by the EPF.

The site also contains the usual practical topics: "Contact us", "How to meet us", "Press" section, "Picture gallery", "Calls for tenders", "Restricted access", "Glossary", etc.

I wish you a pleasant visit of our site!

Jean-François Caron,
President of the EPF Nord-Pas de Calais' Board of Governors
