Does service quality matter in measuring the performance of water utilities (2008, background): “While it is not our intention to provide an exhaustive list, some of the most recent papers are Ashton (2000), Jones and Mygind (2000), Estache and Rossi (2002), Anwandter and Ozuna (2002), Corton (2003), Woodbury and Dollery (2004), Cubbin (2005), Kirkpatrick et al.

Quo vadis efficiency analysis of water distribution? A comparative literature review (2009, background): “varying efficiency models (based on Battese and Coelli,1995; Caudill et al.,1995; Coelli et al., 2003 and Estache et al., 2004) Lin (2005) also finds that a positive rate of chlorine tests, service coverage and service continuity should be included as output variables.”
Has Private Participation in Water and Sewerage Improved Coverage? Empirical Evidence from Latin America (2004, result): “The inconclusive empirical findings in developing countries are consistent with studies of industrialized countries, which also fail to reach a consensus on the relative performance of private and public providers (Anwandter and Ozuna 2002).”
