Abstract

This paper seeks to shed light on the provision of water services - i.e. water distribution and wastewater disposal - in Austria. More specifically, the underlying work adresses the central issues related to water provision: the legal framework, the actual mode of provision, financing as well as monitoring and regulation. Whenever available, the representations of provisional aspects have been supplemented with data.1 The main task of the subsequent sections is to sketch the evolution of the Austrian water sector over the last 10 to 15 years and identify the main drivers of these developments.
