Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the regulation of private water companies in the greater New York metropolitan area during the early 20th century, a time when municipal ownership of water utilities was becoming increasingly common. The author, an expert in water utility management and economics, provides a detailed analysis of the challenges and complexities involved in regulating the rates, standards of service, and investment decisions of these companies. The book sheds light on the strategies employed by the water department to ensure the provision of safe, adequate, and affordable water service to all citizens, while also protecting the legitimate interests of the private water companies. The author explores the tensions between the desire for uniform rates and service standards across the city and the need to consider the unique circumstances and costs associated with serving different areas. The book also examines the impact of municipal competition on the operations and profitability of private water companies. Ultimately, this book offers valuable insights into the complexities of regulating public utilities and the importance of striking a balance between the protection of consumer interests, the viability of private investment, and the promotion of a fair and equitable water service system.
