The new organization of the water sector in Lebanon is governed by three laws: Law 221 issued on May 29th 2000, corrected by the Law 241 issued on August 7th 2000, and amended by Law 377 issued on December 14th 2001. Lately, Decree No 8122, dated on July 3rd 2002, has defined some application processes of Law 221, particularly relating to the merging of water bodies. The spirit of this law is to separate clearly between the macro and micro management of water, and to strengthen the policy of the decentralization by granting more autonomy to regional authorities involved by day to day management of the water supply. This Law encourages implicitly the regional water authorities to manage their establishment on commercial basis and to be ready to deal in the future with the private sector. The nature and the level of private public partnership could be defined accordingly to the needs, to the improvement of requested services and by taking into account the socio-economic situation. The Litani River Authority (LRA) is partially involved in this reform.
