Water Source
Depok's supply is managed by local PDAM utilities using a mix of surface water (rivers/reservoirs) and groundwater, treated with conventional processes (filtration and chlorination). Aging distribution pipes and intermittent supply can allow contamination after treatment, so secondary treatment at point-of-use is common.
