Structure of Water Supply Sample Clauses

Structure of Water Supply. The structure for the supply of purified, non-naturally occurring water around the world can be categorized into networked and non-networked. Networked water supply typically comes from a central source and involves a network of pipes to transmit water, often directly into homes. Non-networked supply includes discrete pieces of infrastructure that either supply water directly or treat water and then bottle it, such as handpumps or kiosks. Networked water is typically state-provided and supply-driven (Xxxxx & Xxxxxx, 0000), though there are examples of private networked suppliers that may be demand-driven (Solo, 2003). Non-networked water supplies are almost always private and tend to be more demand-driven (Solo, 2003). Although urban areas typically have state-provided, networked water supply, non- networked providers often serve poorer and less central areas of cities where access to the network is not available. Research suggests that in many countries, wealthier families live in areas supplied by public and networked supply of water and pay less than poorer families that live in areas that are not serviced as well. The less wealthy are forced to pay for non-state provided water or pay an expensive fee for connection to the network (Xxxxx & Batley, 2004). Also, state-provided networked supply often undercharges for its services, resulting in an inability to expand the network due to a lack of funds (Xxxxx & Batley, 2004). Evidence from Latin America indicates that private networked suppliers are able to recover costs more consistently and provide connections at lower rates than publicly-provided networked water supply (Solo, 2003), although there is also evidence that they charge slightly more per volume sold (Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx, 2005). Non-networked water supply is typically more expensive than private- or state-provided networked supply. LWW is an example of private, non-networked supply, but aims to make its water supply available to the poorest members of a community. This study will consider whether that is possible and what influences the ability of an independent water provider to do so.
