OBJECTIVES OF THE WASTE WATER UTILITY

Toilet icon

The waste water utility of Zurich is a publicly owned but financially self-supporting utility. Water saving may be a problem since income is dependent on water consumption, whilst fixed costs will remain. Lower water consumption also places an added pressure on transporting waste efficiently from households.

Goal

maximize profits

Tasks

Maintain the waste water cleaning system.
Hint: Poor lake water quality results from having too few filtration units and having too low a water demand. You can negotiate with the politician for subsidies if you don't want to borrow from the bank.

Income sources

Based on amounts of water consumed.

Expenses

Changing filtration type, cleaning pipes of waste and advertising.
