This Law establishes the unitary legal framework regarding the establishment, organization, management, financing, exploitation, monitoring and control of the supply/regulated provision of the public water supply and sewerage service of localities. The provisions of this law apply to the public water supply and sewerage service organized at the level of communes, cities, municipalities, counties or, as the case may be, inter-community development associations whose object of activity is the water supply and sewerage service. The public water supply and sewerage service is part of the scope of community public utilities services.

The water supply and sewerage service is established, organized and operates on the basis of the following principles: (a) security of the service; (b) fair pricing; (c) profitability, quality and efficiency of the service; (d) user solidarity reflected in the tariff strategy; (e) transparency and public responsibility, including consultation with employers, unions, users and their representative associations; (f) continuity from a quantitative and qualitative point of view; (g) adaptability to user requirements; (h) equal accessibility of users to the public service, on a contractual basis; and (i) compliance with specific regulations in the field of water management, environmental protection and public health. This Law contains VII Chapters divided into 47 Articles. Chapter I lays down general provisions. Chapter II establishes authorities and powers.
