摘要

委托管理（DMM）是一种供水服务交付模式，由微型运营商在财务和运营上管理管网服务不足的地区。这项事后评价旨在评估DMM对水安全的影响。在DMM和匹配的对照区对亭和家庭储存的水进行了微生物质量测试，显示出相当大的收集后污染。DMM增加了家庭管道连接，减少了家庭储水的需要，从而减少了收集后的污染。然而，DMM kiosk用户仍然暴露于再污染的水。DMM仍然是一种可行的服务提供模式，但需要其他战略来解决家庭储水收集后的污染问题。

The impact of the delegated management model of urban piped service delivery on water quality in Kisumu, Kenya

Delegated management (DMM) is a water service delivery model, whereby micro-operators financially and operationally manage underserved areas of a piped network. This post-hoc evaluation aimed to assess the impact of DMM on water safety. Kiosk and household stored water in DMM and matched control areas were tested for microbiological quality, showing comparable, substantial post-collection contamination. DMM increased household piped connections, reducing the need for household water storage and thereby post-collection contamination. However, DMM kiosk users remain exposed to recontaminated water. DMM remains a viable service delivery model, but other strategies are needed to address post-collection contamination of household stored water.

期刊介绍： Utilities Policy is deliberately international, interdisciplinary, and intersectoral. Articles address utility trends and issues in both developed and developing economies. Authors and reviewers come from various disciplines, including economics, political science, sociology, law, finance, accounting, management, and engineering. Areas of focus include the utility and network industries providing essential electricity, natural gas, water and wastewater, solid waste, communications, broadband, postal, and public transportation services. Utilities Policy invites submissions that apply various quantitative and qualitative methods. Contributions are welcome from both established and emerging scholars as well as accomplished practitioners. Interdisciplinary, comparative, and applied works are encouraged. Submissions to the journal should have a clear focus on governance, performance, and/or analysis of public utilities with an aim toward informing the policymaking process and providing recommendations as appropriate. Relevant topics and issues include but are not limited to industry structures and ownership, market design and dynamics, economic development, resource planning, system modeling, accounting and finance, infrastructure investment, supply and demand efficiency, strategic management and productivity, network operations and integration, supply chains, adaptation and flexibility, service-quality standards, benchmarking and metrics, benefit-cost analysis, behavior and incentives, pricing and demand response, economic and environmental regulation, regulatory performance and impact, restructuring and deregulation, and policy institutions.
