Although the national law states that the principal responsable institution for water supply is the State, in practice the inhabitants of the rural area have gained Access through community organization. The data was obtained from the survey carried out in the area for the V5E Research Project and, using the Net Present Value and a Cost-Benefit analysis, it was assigned a monetary value to the community labour. The results show poor financial feasibility of provision infrastructures. However, it can be said that there is economic efficiency when analysing the costs and benefits for the community. |
