Report 1
Method for Assesment of Water Supply
This is an approaching prospect for obligatory for implementation and pursuit of water safety plans forces the water companies to reflect on supplies in crises situations like droughts, scarcity of water etc. The CWSS that is collective water supply system of each country systems should be protected with the diversification to raise the security amongst the customers. Diversification may be assessed through this method by including the reference and key elements in this whole process CWSS was capable of affecting the continuity of water supply.
Report 2
Getting Water to Work
South East Asia is having a huge shortage of water supply. There is a big issue of water shortages and pollution in Philippines. However in Manila at that time two studies played a very important role in overcoming these issues. The first study talks about the problem where domestic water supply was privatized. The second study flashed on the problem that is industrial usage of groundwater.
Report 3
Marginal Opportunity Costing for Municipal Water Supply
The article describes about the general rationale for marginal opportunity cost (MOC) and various key elements like Marginal production or private cost (MPC), Marginal user or depletion cost (MUC) and Marginal environmental or external cost (MEC). Determining MOC border prices of tradable commodities and implementation of MOC pricing.
Report 4
International Benchmarking Network for Water and Sanitation Utilities
IBNET is a blue book which has created a baseline for a global vision of the state and the sector in developing countries. IBNET talks about various water sanitation and waste water services. It provides and introduction to benchmarking, it elaborates the methodology and data of the overview if results. IBNET and this study can be used by a wide range of stakeholders, including: 1) utilities: to identify areas of improvement and set realistic targets; 2) governments: to monitor and adjust sector policies and programs; 3) regulators: to ensure that adequate incentives are provided for improved utility performance and that consumers obtain value services; 4) consumers and civil society: to express valid concerns; 5) international agencies and advisers: to perform an evaluation of utilities for lending purposes; and 6) private investors: to identify opportunities and viable markets for investments.
Report 5
Drinking Water Supply (Thane District)
Due to increasing urbanisation in Thane district the demand for the water supply was increased drastically from various small and large industries, the demand for drinking water increased day by day and the supply was not able to match the demand. Municipal Corporations never made the provision of drinking water to the growing population on 24*7 basis. The alternative methods of rainwater harvesting, reducing leakages and wastage, had more provision of funds for water supply projects.
Report 6
Water Policy Programme
Water was treated as an economic good looking at the non-availability of clean water for poor people. The concern was that the overly supply led approaches had been financially unsustainable and therefore it failed the poor people. The reasoning for the water supply was greater than the financial sustainability.
Report 7
Urban Water Portfolio
The development of a dynamic portfolio model of urban water supply hedges against the supply risks from all the potential water assets. The optimal portfolio shares an existing water supply system which are derived and compared observed choice. The opportunities between various naturally occurring water sources as well as an over-reliance on manufactured water in years of average and below average natural water availability.
Report 8
Impact of Residential Area on water supply
A convenient sample of 500 respondents has been selected for the present study; out of 500 respondents, 330 is from semi-urban and 170 is from rural areas. The study has covered major areas of Theni district, Tamil Nadu, India. Correlation and regression analysis are used to work out the impact of the residential area on water supply and services. The foregoing analysis found significant variations in the water supply and services in semi-urban and rural areas. Many of the services have negative correlation and rest of them proved to have week relation.
Report 9
Water supply in Vietnam
Providing a high-quality water supply to all sectors of society is one of the most pressing and difficult challenge facing cities across Southeast Asia. Water supply is an expensive proposition in low income countries and often trade offs have to be made among such attributes as purity, reliability of delivery, private vs. shared connections and so on. Not only do they show how much the people in the city value a high-quality piped water connection, but they also throw new light on two different methods of assessing and quantifying this demand.
Report 10
Water Supply on domestic water consumption
In developing countries, water distribution systems are designed for continuous water supply (CWS) with peak factor between 2.0 and 3.0. While in practice, water is supplied for restricted hours in the morning and evening hours for various reasons. One of the assumption is that under intermittent water supply (IWS), water consumption in residential areas is less compared to CWS. Water consumption data was repeatedly collected through water meter readings in all the cities. The study indicates that domestic water consumption depends on adequacy of water supply, under IWS mode of operation.
Conclusion – After going through these articles, many articles are flashing on the problem of domestic water supply, water shortages etc, even though two of the articles talked about how we can overcome this problems using some methods. Still we can’t guess how many countries are following these methods as every day somewhere in the world we get know there is scarcity of water supply.
