Abstract:
Water supply services as well as their administration are essential to support the sustainable development
of the society. For this reason, both at the European level and at the level of Romania, it is necessary to find the
most suitable management methods and models for their administration. As regards European Union various
managerial strategies are adopted in connection with water supply services that differ depending on the local
specifics, history, culture and local traditions etc. This paper presents relevant issues regarding the management of
water services in the member states of the European Union, in order to understand the current European
perspective on the water services administration and to identify good practices for our country.
