• Quo vadis efficiency analysis of water distribution? A comparative literature review (2009, methodology): “Saal et al. (2007) apply SFA with panel data from 1985 to 2000 to ten English and Welsh private water and sewerage companies.”
• A Meta-Regression Analysis of Benchmarking Studies on Water Utilities Market Structure (2012, background): “Later Saal and Parker (2004) found constant returns to scale and Saal et al. (2007) revisited the issue, finding that large water and sewerage utilities are characterized by diseconomies of scale in England and Wales.”
