General conditions for the supply of water from public pipelines
(1) The administrator which supplies water from the public water pipeline (hereinafter referred to as the supplier) ensures the supply of water in accordance with the conditions for connection of the property to the public water pipeline laid down in this Decree and the technical standards.
(2) The manager (owner, user) 13) of the property for which the water from the public water pipeline (hereinafter the "customer") is supplied may take the water to the agreed amount and, if the amount of the purchase is not agreed, as the case may be. In doing so, they shall ensure that the regulations and measures issued to ensure the correct functioning of the internal tap and its components and follow the instructions of the supplier.
(3) In cases referred to in § 24 (1) (d) to (j), if the customer fails to comply with the conditions of collection, the supplier shall be entitled to restrict or interrupt the supply of water.
(4) The supplier is not obliged to meet the customer's requirements for the delivery time, quantity, pressure, different water quality, which goes beyond the possibilities of water supply by existing public water supply facilities. Compliance with these requirements shall be ensured by the customer at his own expense and by his own equipment upon approval by the supplier.
The supplier shall measure the withdrawal of water from the public water pipeline by means of a water meter when the water from the public water system is brought into the property by a water supply connection. The quantity of water taken for different purposes, for which payment is paid at different rates, shall be measured for each payment by a separate water meter provided by the customer; If such measurements cannot be carried out, the quantity shall be determined according to the annual indicative water consumption numbers listed in the Annex to this decree. If the supplier decides to install a water meter on a water supply line from which the water consumption has not yet been measured, the customer shall make the necessary adjustments to the internal water supply line according to his instructions and technical standards.
(1) The collection of water from hydrants, except for fire-fighting equipment declared by the fire department, shall be measured according to the conditions of the supplier; where the supplier allows short-term water sampling for operational purposes, the water consumption shall be measured by means of a water meter on the hydrants extension.
(2) Water collection from public effluents established exceptionally in cases where it is not appropriate to establish water connections to individual properties, shall be measured by a water meter or shall be determined in accordance with the annual indicative water consumption numbers.
According to the annual indicative water consumption figures, the amount of water collection shall be determined in all cases where the water meter is not fitted.
(1) The water meter is in the administration of the supplier who performs its installation (assembly), maintenance, and can replace it on his load at any time.
(2) The waterometer is subject to official verification in accordance with specific rules. 14) If the customer has doubts as to the accuracy of the watermeter data, he shall be entitled to ask the supplier to check the water meter. The supplier shall, within 30 days of the date of receipt of the notification by the customer, ensure that the water meter is tested according to the technical standard. 15) The supplier shall notify the customer without delay of the result.
(3) If the water-meter test requested by the customer is found,
(a) that the water-meter is defective or that its data deviate from the fact more than the technical standard allows, 15) the person benefiting from the derogation shall pay the other party the financial difference from the date of the last non-affected deduction. The costs of checking and replacing the water meter shall be borne by the supplier,
(b) that its data do not deviate from the actual value more than the technical standard allows, 15) the customer pays the cost of the check.
(4) The request for a water meter check shall not relieve the customer of the obligation to pay the payment within the prescribed period. If it is not possible to accurately determine the amount of water taken over the time of the water meter failure, it shall be calculated according to the same period of last year. If there is a new sampling or change in the sampling ratios, the amount of this sampling shall be determined according to the annual indicative water consumption numbers.
(1) The collector may place on his load his / her own subsidiary water gauge 16) (e.g. for a hostel, shop, factory, etc., located in a residential house); the installation of this water meter shall be notified to the supplier.
(2) If the downstream water meter is fitted by the supplier to the customer, the water meter shall be in the supplier's administration and may be replaced or withdrawn at any time by the supplier for reasons of public water supply.

(2) The collector shall immediately remove any obstacles which make it impossible to read on the main water meter, in particular to implement immediately the measures against flooding of the space in which the water meter is located.
(1) Water supply is satisfied by the transfer of water from a public water pipeline to a customer's facility.
(2) When delivering water through water connections, the supply is satisfied
(a) by water flow through the main water meter, if fitted;
(b) by flow of water at the point where the public part of the connection passes into the home part of the connection. (3)
(3) Unless otherwise agreed between the supplier and the customer, the agreed water supply is of drinking water quality. 17)
(4) The collector is obliged to ensure that all regulations relating to the collection and management of water from public pipelines are maintained by downstream users.
(1) The supplier is entitled to restrict or interrupt the supply of water from the public water pipeline
(a) when carrying out planned repairs, maintenance and revision work;

(k) in the case of restrictions or other arrangements for the supply of drinking water by the water authority, 18)
(2) The supplier shall notify the customer, in an appropriate manner, of the restriction or interruption of the supply of water, at least 15 days in advance, except for the interruption of the supply for the reasons referred to in paragraph 1 (b), (c) and (d), when he makes the notification no later than 24 hours after the reason for the restriction or interruption of the supply of water.
(3) After removal of defects or causes for which delivery has been restricted or interrupted, the supplier is obliged to restore the water supply.
(4) The supplier shall interrupt the supply of water if the customer so requests for the removal of defects on the home part of the water connection.
(1) For the collection of water from the public tap
(a) without contract with the supplier;
(b) contrary to the contract
1. where the purchaser collects water for other purposes or in more than one quantity than agreed;
2. if the customer has taken such measures as to ensure that the water meter does not either record or misrecord the water meter to the detriment of the supplier, if it uses the water meter which has been deliberately modified or if the water meter has damaged, damaged its seal or did not report its accidental damage within three days after it has been detected and used by the water meter,
3. the use of a hydrometer fire bypass (19) for purposes other than fire;
These water withdrawals shall be accounted for at the rate of payment associated with the supply of water from public pipelines for the quantity of water collected by technical calculation, based on the clarity of the pipeline, the proven or anticipated duration of the water collection and the purpose for which the water was used.
(2) The amounts thus fixed for the collection shall be added to the costs associated with the collection of the cases referred to in paragraph 1, but not less than 50 CZK.
(1) In the cases referred to in § 24 (1) (a) to (c) which hinder the supply of water, the supplier shall be required to provide alternative supplies (e.g. by importing drinking water in tanks) to the extent of the emergency supply of drinking water to the population at an affordable distance and at the cost of invoicing the payment associated with the supply of water from public pipelines.
(2) During the emergency water supply, water collection may not be invoiced at the level of the indicative water consumption numbers; only the quantity of water actually delivered at the time of replacement is invoiced to the customer. The supplier is entitled to allocate this quantity to individual customers in the proportion in which they collected water during the same period of last year.
(3) The collector shall cooperate with the supplier to enable the replacement supply of water.
(1) The supplier shall not be liable for damage caused by a lack of water pressure in the case of a limited supply of water for a failure on the tap or on the public part of the water supply or in the event of interruption of the supply of electricity for a service station, or in the case of a lack of drinking water, or for any other reason where the supplier is entitled to restrict or interrupt the supply of water.
(2) If a failure occurs on public water supply facilities, the supplier is obliged to ensure that the repair is carried out; The customer has the same obligation in the event of failure of his equipment (internal water supply, home part of the connection).
(3) The collector must not directly link the internal water supply line connected to the public water supply network with a pipeline supplied from another source (e.g. from his own hydrophone, storage tank, etc.) and connect the water supply via the appliance to the sewage pipeline. The connection of the internal distribution line supplying water from different connections requires the consent of the supplier. The collector shall also comply with technical standards in other cases. 20)
General conditions for waste water drainage by public sewerage
(1) Only quality and quantity waters may be carried out by public sewerage operations in accordance with the conditions of the sewerage plan or, where appropriate, with an authorisation issued by the water management authority. 21)
(2) The manager (owner, user) 13) of the property, or parts thereof, and the facilities in which waste water is generated (hereinafter referred to as the "customer") can only connect it to the public sewerage via a sewer connection.
(3) If the sewage connection is a waterworks, it shall have a control shaft for measuring the amount of waste water and sampling it. The shaft shall be positioned so that it is always accessible.
(4) The AIFM which transmits waste water through public sewerage (hereinafter referred to as "supplier") is required to check the measurement of the quantity and quality of pre-treated waste water discharged into the public sewerage in order to comply with the standards of the sewerage system.
(1) Waste water discharged into the public sewerage and taken away by the customer is measured by its measuring devices, agreed with the supplier, usually at the place where the waste water discharged from the property passes from the customer's facilities to the supplier's facilities, if technically possible. The measuring device may also be located in the nearest public sewer shaft or in a specific profile, or in another place agreed between the supplier and the customer.
(2) Standing measuring equipment must be verified and maintained in a state of operation. The type of measuring device and its size shall correspond to the flow rate, the quality of the water emitted and the method of discharge according to the technical standard. 22)
(3) If the supplier has doubts as to the accuracy of the measurements, he shall request the customer in writing to check the measuring equipment. The collector shall, within 30 days of receipt of the request, ensure that the measuring equipment is tested; If the test finds that the measuring device is defective, the customer is obliged to replace it for correct.
(4) The test of the measuring equipment shall be carried out according to specific regulations. 14) If the test finds that the measuring device data
(a) do not deviate from reality more than the technical conditions of the measuring equipment or the derogation agreed between the supplier and the customer, the costs of the test shall be borne by the supplier;
(b) deviate from the actual values more than those permitted by the technical conditions of the measuring equipment or the derogation agreed between the supplier and the customer, the property settlement of the resulting differences shall be made of the payment for the collection of waste water; the costs of checking and replacing the measuring equipment shall be borne by the customer.
(1) Where the quantity of water discharged is not measured, it is assumed that the customer who takes the water from the public water pipeline discharges into the public sewerage the amount of water that he found on the water meter or according to the annual indicative number of water consumption from the water duct plus the amount of water obtained from other sources.
(2) Where a customer uses water taken from a public water pipeline in part and does not discharge it into a public sewage system (e.g. breweries, sodas, horticulture and other undertakings), the amount of water discharged shall be determined by expert calculation according to the reports and technical calculations submitted by the customer and verified by the supplier, unless the supplier has agreed otherwise with the customer in advance.
(3) If the customer discharges water from sources other than the public tap (e.g. from its own wells, from water streams and from others) into public sewerage, and if it is not possible to detect the discharge of water at all times by measuring or according to the annual indicative water consumption figures, the supplier shall determine the quantity of water emitted by expert calculation or, where appropriate, on the spot. To this end, the collector shall submit the required technical calculations and indicators to the supplier.
(4) In the case of an internal water pipeline accident that causes water leakage outside public sewerage, the supplier shall provide the customer with a credit for the quantity of water determined on the basis of the control deduction of the water consumption after the accident has been removed. However, the collector must demonstrate and technically justify the leakage and quantity of water not carried out by sewerage.
(5) If it is not possible to accurately determine the quantity of water emitted during the period of failure of the measuring equipment, this quantity shall be determined by expert calculation.
The drainage of water by public sewerage is fulfilled at the moment of the transfer of the discharge water from the customer's facility to the supplier's facility, i.e. at the point where the home part of the sewage connection passes to its public particular.3)
(1) The collector may release waste and withholding water into the public sewerage under the conditions laid down in the sewerage regulations, as applicable, unless the quantity authorised is limited by compliance with the limit value of their pollution laid down by the sewerage regulations or by the authorisation of the water authority under Article 24 (3) of the Water Act.
(2) In places where public sewerage is built but the public water pipeline is not built, the customer is obliged to agree with the supplier on the drainage of waste water and how to measure it.
(1) The supplier is entitled to limit or interrupt the drainage of waste water by public sewerage
(a) when carrying out planned repairs, maintenance and revision work discussed with the customer at least 40 days in advance;
(b) for reasons caused by natural disasters (e.g. floods, landslides, storms, fires, etc.),
(c) in the event of an accident in the operation of a sewerage network to prevent the removal of waters or, in other cases, due to operational needs, where there is a danger of delay;
(d) if the customer's equipment does not comply with the rules to the extent that it may endanger the health, safety of persons and property;
(e) where the customer prevents the supplier from accessing and controlling the indoor sewage facilities;
(f) a waste water discharge has been detected in the customer
1. without the necessary authorisation of the water management authority, 21)
2. which is contrary to the authorisation of the water operator, 21)
3. which is contrary to the Sewerage Regulations, 23)
(g) if the customer has been found to be connected by a sewer connection without the consent of the supplier,
(h) if the customer has not removed the internal sewage defect within a period to be determined by the supplier.
(2) The supplier shall, except in the cases referred to in points (a), (b), (c) and (d) of paragraph 1, notify the supplier in advance of the restriction or interruption of the drainage by public sewerage. In the cases referred to in points (b), (c) and (d) of paragraph 1, the supplier shall notify the customer of the restriction or interruption of the waste water discharge subsequently, no later than 24 hours after the reason for the restriction or interruption has arisen.
(3) The supplier is obliged to resume the disposal of waste water which has been restricted or interrupted after the removal of defects for which the disposal of waste water has been restricted or interrupted.
(1) When discharges of waste water into public sewerage
(a) without contract with the supplier;
(b) which is contrary to the contract;
1. if the consumer discharges waste water in quantities or in classes other than those agreed;
2. if the customer has taken such a measure that the measuring equipment of the discharged water does not record or record incorrectly to the detriment of the supplier, if the customer knowingly uses the device which is incorrectly modified, or if the measuring device has damaged or failed to report its damage within three days of the date of detection of the damage,
The quantity of waste water discharged by technical calculation shall be determined based on water sources, piping clearance and on proven or anticipated discharge times.
