The main aim of this paper is to estimate the change in the quantity demanded of public water when the economic factors such as income and water price are changed. The privious methods to estimate the quantity of public water demanded has been usually based on the LPCD(liter per capita per day). Implicitly, this method regards the price of water as given. If the water price and income elasticities of water demand are estimated using the time-series and pooled data analysis. In the second step, the quantity demanded of public water are forecasted using the estimated elasticities. The results show that we can reduce the quantity demanded of residential water considerably when the water price is changed.
