Where VAIA is

VAIA is at Montalieu-Vercieu, France, and this register holds no position for it. The company has confirmed the site and no citable source places the works: it is being built where nobody has yet drawn it. The row is held anyway — position is not a condition of being on file — and what was searched, and what was found instead, is below.

NO POSITION SOUGHT BY THIS PASS. Brief 8 forbids geocoding in a census -- a municipality is not a point -- and the owner statement that admits this row names the works and not a position. The works is Montalieu-Vercieu. A polygon for it is a separate job and the row is admitted without one, on the rule that position is not an admission leg.
