The Soviet legacy is weighing on water supply companies. They will have to take over hundreds of unused, crumbling water towers and dilapidated water routes. To operate, repair or demolish all this infrastructure requires millions of euros. The Ministry of Environment says that it is up to the suppliers themselves to decide whether to take over existing assets or build new ones - it is important to ensure water supply.
