1. The objectives of the survey
• from water price to water bill analysis
• the rising of the awareness about social impact of water bill
• the context of the WFD’s implementation and its reference to disproportionate costs :
• comparison of costs and benefits
• capacity of economic sectors (inc. households) to finance the environmental objectives targeted

3. Water price survey
• tariffs for water and sewerage set at municipality level (2 448 for the Artois-Picardie basin)
• an annual survey is undertaken by the Artois-Picardie Water agency (i.e. collecting the price for water and sewerage for all municipalities for a mean consumption of 120m3 per year and per household)
• this survey covers (in 2004) 95% of the basin’s population

6. Results, limits and discussion
• several groups of municipalities with ratio>3% (2-3% is a guidance value – see OCDE, EU, Académie de l’eau)
• these groups of municipalities combine high water price and low mean available income (and sometimes household’s expenses to buy bottled water equivalent to annual water bill)

6. Results, limits and discussion
• the commonly used value of annual consumption of 120 m3 per household hides important differences of mean consumption per region
• mean available income per municipality hides also various situations (and the real part of the population facing major difficulties to pay water bills)

6. Results, limits and discussion
• what to do ? Continue ! Refine this ratio and continue to track it in the coming years
• pay a specific attention to the groups of municipalities where efforts to meet WFD objectives should lead to major increase in water price (extent solidarity principle, delay or less stringent objectives ?)
• it raises this issue of specific social tariffs (e.g. Flanders’ experience, blocks tariffs, development of water savings, renew confidence in tap water)
