Drinking Water System of Chernivtsi: Current Condition, Vulnerability Assessment and Possible Ways of Threat Mitigation
Abstract Water/sewage system is one of the key parts of the municipal economy. It is shown that current operation mode of the Chernivtsi (Ukraine) drinking water system is significantly overproductive. The system output is growing although total water usage is gradually decreasing. Main causes of this situation are identified and analyzed. It is also shown that such situation can potentially cause raise of the ground water level followed by the threat of ground shifts and weakening especially on the slopes. These processes can seriously damage pipelines and other municipal communications causing follow up depressurization and other secondary problems. Current condition and possible risks of the municipal water supply points functioning are also analyzed. Prospects of the gradual switching from current surface water supply to the underground water are discussed. Main problems related to the local wastewater treatment plant operation are also identified and analyzed and some steps to mitigate these problems are proposed.
