Water utilities are organizations responsible for providing water supply and wastewater management services to communities. They ensure that clean and safe drinking water is delivered to homes and businesses while also treating and disposing of wastewater to protect public health and the environment. These utilities operate through a network of pipes, treatment plants, and storage facilities. They monitor water quality and maintain infrastructure to meet regulatory standards. Water utilities may be publicly owned or privately operated, and they often charge customers for the water services they provide, ensuring sustainable management of this vital resource.
