Water scarcity in the Gaza Strip forms a real crisis for people in this area.
The ground water is the main resource for domestic use in the Gaza Strip.
This resource suffers from rapid decline in both quality and quantity.
The crisis should be managed carefully to secure the water demand with an appropriate price. The water sector can't be managed successfully without a suitable water pricing system because any improvement process for the water supply service is likely to increase the cost of this service.
Water pricing must be integrated with other measures to ensure that environmental, economic and social objectives are met cost effectively. Globally, evaluation of water pricing systems continues to be a very essential issue.
Subsequently, this research aims to study the major factors on which water pricing should be built in the Gaza Strip to enhance the appropriate water pricing to play a key role in the development of a sustainable water service. The major factors that were studied in this thesis include water consumption, water quality and quantity of the supplied service, socioeconomic situation, willingness to pay, ability and affordability, illegal connections, public awareness, community participation in decision making, institutional arrangements and the political situation. Forty-four interviews were administered with persons, who were dealing or having contact with water supply sector.
Seven hundred and sixty questionnaires were distributed among the subscripted households in the governorates of the Gaza Strip.
Only 609 of them were used in data analysis. The results of the study reveal that the average price " 3.0 NIS per m3" for improved water supply service, that matches the WHO standard, is a suitable price for domestic use.
This price could cover the costs of production, maintenance and operation according to water tariff study conducted by and for the Palestinian Water Authority.
This price also is affordable by all income groups. Furthermore, the study provides several recommendations such as, developing water pricing policies, searching for additional water resources, replacing the fragmented structure by a unified policy approach and organizing public awareness campaigns.
The study contributes towards establishing a baseline for any water tariff structure and reflects the need for further research.
