Contexte

The recent territorial reforms have initiated a revision of the distribution of competences in water management (GEMAPI, drinking water, sanitation, rainwater). These structural changes have forced local authorities to reflect on the future organisation of water services: what local governance ? what optimal size of service ? what territorial solidarity(ies) ? etc.
The Haute-Loire prefecture wished to draw up an inventory of the issues involved in the transfer of the "small cycle" competence on a departmental scale, by involving all the project owners in the discussions.
