description This study focuses on the conditions for the implementation of the APP, in the form of a concession for the management of the sewerage business. Three uncertainties were identified as limiting factors for PPPs; a) level of service to ensure sustainability, aging of machinery and equipment; b) public spending on rain and the national government subsidy system; c) residents' perception of the water business and the provision of equitable services. The methodology includes case studies (cities of Hamamatsu, Osaka and Nara in Japan). It consists of two parts: a) analysis of relevant published materials and b) application of surveys and semi-structured interviews with municipal officials and, in the case of Osaka, an affiliated company established to operate the sewer business.

Se identificaron tres incertidumbres como factores limitantes para las APP; a) nivel de servicio para asegurar la sostenibilidad, deterioro de maquinaria y equipo; b) gasto público en lluvia y sistema de subsidios del gobierno nacional; c) percepción de los residentes sobre el negocio del agua y la provisión de servicios equitativos. La metodología incluye estudios de casos (ciudades de Hamamatsu, Osaka y Nara en Japón). Consta de dos partes: a) análisis de materiales publicados relevantes y b) aplicación de encuestas y entrevistas semiestructuradas con funcionarios municipales y, en el caso de Osaka, una empresa afiliada establecida para operar el negocio de alcantarillado.

Cette étude se concentre sur les conditions de mise en œuvre du PPP, sous la forme d’une concession pour la gestion de l’entreprise d’assainissement. Trois incertitudes ont été identifiées comme des facteurs limitatifs pour les PPP ; a) niveau de service pour assurer la durabilité, détérioration des machines et des équipements ; b) dépenses publiques en pluie et système de subventions du gouvernement national ; c) perception par les résidents du commerce de l’eau et de la fourniture de services équitables. La méthodologie comprend des études de cas (villes de Hamamatsu, Osaka et Nara au Japon). Il se compose de deux parties : a) l’analyse des documents publiés pertinents et b) l’application d’enquêtes et d’entretiens semi-structurés avec des fonctionnaires municipaux et, dans le cas d’Osaka, une société affiliée établie pour gérer l’entreprise d’assainissement. Este estudo tem como foco as condições de implantação da APP, na forma de concessão para a gestão do negócio de esgotamento sanitário. Três incertezas foram identificadas como fatores limitantes para as PPPs; a) nível de serviço para garantir a sustentabilidade, deterioração de máquinas e equipamentos; b) gastos públicos em chuva e sistema de subsídios do governo nacional; c) A percepção dos residentes sobre o negócio da água e a prestação de serviços equitativos.
