Municipal water challenges in BIH
Municipalities in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) are responsible for providing water services and maintaining and operating municipal infrastructure. The municipally owned companies are in a perpetual financial crisis due to several reasons – the major being the traditional ‘ clientilist’ model of water service provision. The post-socialist and – war heritage in BiH is one where prices do not cover operating costs, maintenance and investments are limited, quality standards are low, and water facilities are not protected from potential hazards. In the case of the Sarajevo water supply, the exponential trend equation states that water losses grow by 1.9 percent per year. Probably all municipal water companies would fail the test of ‘ going concern.’ The purpose of this paper is to highlight the current challenges of the BiH water supply system and to propose a strategy of achieving its better results based on benchmarking performances.
