The first part describes the legal framework which rules the sector in Italy, its evolution since the last 20 years, and its weaknesses. The second part describes the governance of Italian water utilities, distinguishing full public-owned companies from public-private partnership and private companies. The third part reports insights on water utilities performance to enquire the presence of economies by scope, scale and density in the Italian water sector, and to verify the presence of any differences in terms of efficiency and tariffs among public and private firms. The fourth part describes the investment policies carried out by water utilities, observing the total amount of per capita investments and the actual realization of planned investments. The fifth part describes if and how utilities applied water conservation practices to incentive the sustainable water use. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Water Science and Technology,$x2194-7244 606 $aEconomic policy 606 $aEnvironmental management 606 $aWater-supply 606 $aSustainable development 606 $aEnvironmental law 606 $aEnvironmental policy 606 $aEconomic Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34010 606 $aWater Policy/Water Governance/Water Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/215000 606 $aWater Industry/Water Technologies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/214000 606 $aSustainable Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000 606 $aEnvironmental Law/Policy/Ecojustice$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U16002 615 0$aEconomic policy. 615 0$aEnvironmental management. 615 0$aWater-supply. 615 0$aSustainable development. 615 0$aEnvironmental law. 615 0$aEnvironmental policy. 615 14$aEconomic Policy. 615 24$aWater Policy/Water Governance/Water Management. 615 24$aWater Industry/Water Technologies. 615 24$aSustainable Development. 615 24$aEnvironmental Law/Policy/Ecojustice. 676 $a363.610683 700 $aGuerrini$b Andrea$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0327652 702 $aRomano$b Giulia$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298371603321 996 $aWater Management in Italy$92532986 997 $aUNINA
