Vesihuoltoon
Vesihuoltoon refers to the Finnish term for water supply and sewerage services. It encompasses the organized provision of safe drinking water and the management of wastewater to protect public health and the environment. In Finland, water supply and sewerage are typically provided by municipal water utilities or private companies operating under municipal supervision. The responsibility for ensuring the quality and availability of water, as well as the safe treatment and disposal of wastewater, lies with these service providers. Finnish legislation, particularly the Water Services Act, sets strict standards for water quality, operational efficiency, and environmental protection related to these services. Consumers pay fees for water supply and sewerage based on their consumption and the services provided. Investment in modernizing and maintaining water and wastewater infrastructure is crucial to meet these regulatory requirements and ensure reliable service delivery. This includes managing both the distribution of clean water and the collection and treatment of wastewater before it is returned to the environment.
