Since the unemployed industrial workers, farmers, and the general population of the WSA have made sacrifices to provide clean water to the WRA, we propose a mechanism to redistribute the expenses of water quality services among the stakeholders in an equitable and effective manner. The mechanism is termed “Payment for Water Quality Services (PWQS)”. Possible means to implement it within the current governance structure is also discussed.

Featured Case

Water Source and Receiving Areas for the MRP.

Water Quality Control of the South-to-North Water Diversion (SNWD) Middle Route Project (MRP) addresses the issues of cost-benefit sharing between Water Source Area (WSA) and Water Receiving Area (WRA) in a large-scale water transfer project in China. The proposed water quality control projects in the WSA of China’s South-to-North Water Diversion (SNWD) Middle Route Project (MRP) affects industrial and agricultural sectors in the relatively poor WSA, but also benefits residential users in both the WSA and WRA in terms of water quality and ecosystem improvements. Since the unemployed industrial workers, farmers, and the general population of the WSA have made sacrifices to provide clean water to the WRA, we propose a mechanism to redistribute the expenses of water quality services among the stakeholders in an equitable and effective manner...
