The Resource Saving as a Strategic Direction of Development of the Enterprises of Water Supply and Sewerage Services

Abstract

In the current conditions of functioning of the market economy, the enterprises of housing and communal services (HCS) become even more important, because their main task is satisfying the priority needs of the population along with various categories of consumers. The largest share of the specific weight of the HCS services occupies the sub-industry of «water supply and sewerage services» (WSS). At present, resource saving at the enterprises of water supply and sewerage services is the absolutely essential strategic direction not just at the micro-level (enterprises), but also at the macro-level (the State). Today the government has developed a number of projects and programs on resource saving at the WSS enterprises, but most of them left their mark only on paper, and not finding reflection in the practical activities of enterprises. Therefore, the topic of resource saving acquires special relevance. The article is aimed at solving these issues.
