Treiman M.G.
The purpose of the article is to study the features of the construction of water balance calculations in the regional context. The methodological approaches of the study are the use of complex methods of analysis and synthesis of data on water supply and sanitation to form a balance of water supply and sanitation. The research is aimed at creating a system of water resources management at the regional level, since the integrated system of water balances allows to establish processes of accounting for water resources at the stages of water supply and sanitation. The use of complex balances makes it possible to control and determine the volume of unaccounted losses in water supply, as well as the amount of precipitation and treated wastewater for wastewater disposal. The use of water management balances makes it possible to control and develop regional water use, assess the capacity and composition of water resources, their quantitative composition and use cases. The study reflects specific approaches to the design of water supply and sanitation balances in St. Petersburg, according to them it is possible to understand the structural features of water use and identify problems in particular in the field of rational resource consumption, solving the problem of wastewater sludge disposal and others.
