Water supply service
At 1998
4510 (75.8%) settlements are served by the National
Water Supply System;
98 % of the population is water supplied;
At 2010
5031 (84.6%) settlements are served by the National
Water Supply System;
98.8 % of the population is water supplied;
the facilities
11+5 reservoirs with 1 505,000,000 m3 storage capacity;
42 WTPs with 480,506,000 m3/a capacity, providing 42% of the
supplied water;
3560 pump stations with 768,378,000 m3/a capacity

in 2010
929,410,000 m3 - supplied water;
Only 371,400,000 m3(40%) are accounted;
And 558,000,000 m3 (60%) are not accounted;
…however
70% are pure physical
losses
30% are consumed but not accounted
135 l/ca/d
340 l/cap/d
205 l/cap/d
…and the problems
Great water losses in the transport trunks, the
distribution networks and the building connections;
Water shortage during the summer months and
during droughty conditions, due to lack of equalizing
water reservoirs;
Many not completed facilities of the water supply
infrastructure;
Potable water abstraction

What are the main WTPs’ problems?
The equipment is physically and technically out dated; Necessity of re-evaluation of the treatment technologies due to
deterioration of the raw water quality; The preparation of projects for many WTPs is preceding the
construction and filling in of the reservoirs, which results in utilization of prognostic, not real water quality data;
The treatment of technical waters is either not developed at all or has not been solved good in many WTPs;
Some water abstraction by reservoirs are not secured by sanitary protection zones, which creates problems to the raw water quality;
Lack of research institute that should develop technologies based on real, not prognostic water quality.
