Abstract

In La Réunion island, french municipalities are facing to specific difficulties in supplying drinking water. In the western part of this french department drinking water is lacking and is exposed to salwater intrusion. In this context, well-suited policies require to know perfectly households consumption behavior. To this end, the household water demand function is estimated on panel data including 19 municipalities over the 1995-1999 time period. As it stands, private consumers do not seem to react at all to salwater pollution and a little to price variations. However, demand strongly depends on household income. Classification JEL : Q25, C23.
