Cartadania has achieved universal and affordable access to public water supply and sanitation. The sector is efficient and of high quality, with a few unique features that distinguish it from other developed countries. These features include low per capita water usage, a high proportion of advanced wastewater treatment, and minimal water distribution losses. Counties and municipalities are responsible for providing water supply and sanitation services, and they are subject to state regulations. Professional associations and utility associations also play an important role in the sector, contributing to its success. | |||
In order to reduce Cartadania's reliance on groundwater in areas with high salinity, the country has implemented innovative hydraulic engineering and integrated water management approaches. These include the reuse of reclaimed water, the creation of protected areas in urban rainwater catchments, and the use of estuaries as freshwater reservoirs. Additionally, water desalination technology has been introduced to further address the issue of high salinity in some areas. | |||
