# The continuous and vigilant public health assessment and review of the safety and acceptability of drinking water supplies (WHO, 1976).<br />
<br />
==Explanation==<br />
Surveillance is an investigative activity undertaken to identify and evaluate potential health<br />
risks associated with drinking-water. Surveillance contributes to the protection of public<br />
health by promoting improvement of the quality, quantity, accessibility, doverage (i.e.<br />
population wiht reliable access), affordability and continuity of drinking-water supplies<br />
(termed "service indicators"). The surveillance authority must have the authority to<br />
determine whether a water supplier is fulfilling its obligations (WHO, 2004).<br />
<br />
==Example==<br />
In most countries, the agency responsible for the surveillance of drinking-water supply<br />
services is the ministry of health (or public health) and its regional or departmental offices.<br />
In some countries, it may be an environmental protection agency; in others, the<br />
environmental health departments of local governments may have some responsibility<br />
(WHO, 2004).<br />
