Slovak water utility denies hazardous network, cites capacity imbalance for leaks

The head of Podtatranská vodárenská (a Slovak water utility) rejects claims that water networks are in a hazardous state, attributing leaks to a mathematical imbalance in capacity allocation rather than pipe failures. The claim is disputed by the utility, and the actual condition of the infrastructure remains uncertain. This matters because it affects public safety and infrastructure investment priorities in the Tatra region.
