Beberapa definisi:

a. Sistem Penyediaan Air Minum (SPAM)

Water supply system, infrastructure for the collection, transmission, treatment, storage, and distribution
of water for homes, commercial establishments, industry, and irrigation, as well as for such public needs
as firefighting and street flushing. Of all municipal services, provision of potable water is perhaps the most
vital. People depend on water for drinking, cooking, washing, carrying away wastes, and other domestic
needs. Water supply systems must also meet requirements for public, commercial, and industrial activities.
In all cases, the water must fulfill both quality and quantity requirements. (Nathanson, J, Basic
Environmental Technology: Water Supply, Waste Disposal, and Pollution Control. New jersey)

The purpose of municipal water delivery systems is to transport potable water from a water treatment
facility to residential consumers, for use as drinking water, water for cooking, water for sanitary conditions,
and other water use in a domestic environment. Water supply also is essential for business and industry to
operate in a municipal environment. Of no less importance is the need to supply water to properly located
fire hydrants to provide the public with an effective level of fire protection. Municipal water systems also
may need to provide water for special services that include street cleaning, the selling of water to
contractors for erecting buildings, parks and recreation, and miscellaneous uses. A water system has two
primary requirements: First, it needs to deliver adequate amounts of water to meet consumer consumption
requirements plus needed fire flow requirements. Second, the water system needs to be reliable; the
required amount of water needs to be available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. (Hickey, H. 2008, Water
Supply Systems and Evaluation Methods)
Berdasarkan beberapa pengertian diatas maka SPAM tidak hanya sekedar, mengumpulkan,
mentransmisikan, mengolah dan distribusi sampai ke rumah, lebih dari itu SPAM harus dapat memenuhi
kebutuhan perkotaan seperti area komersial, industri, sarana public seperti hidran kebakaran,
pembersihan jalan, taman dan juga sarana rekreasi yang dapat memenuhi kebutuhan pelanggan serta
kebutuhan hidran kebakaran juga harus tersedia dalam 24 jam sehari dan 365 hari dalam setahun.

b. SPAM Lintas --> usulan definisi terkait SPAM Lintas provinsi dan Kabupaten/kota.

There are some models for inter-regional collaboration of water supply provision. Henry (1995) stated that
were intergovernmental service contract, joint service agreement, and intergovernmental service transfer
as alternative models of collaboration. Taylor (2003) stated that there were handshake agreement, fee for
service contract, joint agreement, jointly-formed authorities, and regional bodies as models of
collaboration. Indonesia’s City Government Association stated that cooperation body; coordination forum;
monitoring, evaluation, and coordination forum; and jointly cooperation can be used as model of
collaboration. For water supply provision collaboration, especially related to water resource handshake
agreement; fee for service contracts; coordination, monitoring, and evaluation forum, as well as joint
aggrement can be applied as an alternative models of collaboration

Usulan saya mungkin seperti ini  Sistem Penyediaan Air Minum Kolaborasi Antar Daerah (SPAM KLD)
khususnya yang berkaitan dengan sumber daya air perlu ada handshake agreement; fee for service
contracts; coordination, monitoring, and evaluation forum, dan juga joint aggrement sebagai alternative
model kolaborasi

c. JP dan BJP perlu ada definisi yang jelas dan konsisten.

Pipe Networks It refers to the investigation of a particular area of the system of fluid flow rate and its
pressure through hydrodynamic network using interconnected branches. Pipe network consists of
interconnected pipes, which are used to solve the problems of hydraulic design. The specialized section
where the pipe network theory can apply is in water utilities.

Usulan saya mungkin seperti ini  sesuai dengan pengertian diatas tentang jaringan perpipaan bahwa
jaringan perpipaan terdiri dari pipa yang saling berhubungan yang akan menyelesaikan permasalahan
desain hidrolis, jadi jelas bahwa JP harus memenuhi unsur tersebut maka setiap perpipaan yang masuk ke
dalam rumah atau SR disebut JP terlepas dari mana sumbernya berasal, sedangkan untuk BJP dapat
dikategorikan sebagai sarana Hidran Umum atau dibatasi diluar perpipaan SR
