description This article addresses an important task for the operators of public water supply systems. It is to ensure the long-term security, reliability, and provision of the required quantity and prescribed quality of drinking water systems. To fulfill this task, a program called “Risk Assessment” has been developed. The risk assessment program for the drinking water supply system is incorporated into current legislation, which mandates that all operators of public water supply systems assess the waterworks that they operate. The objective of this article is to assess the risks of the drinking water supply system of the Nový Malín communal waterworks in accordance with the applicable legislation and recommended methodology. These waterworks constitute communal waterworks and encompass 7 underground water sources serving 3 municipalities and 7 settlements totaling 3500 residents. The results of this analysis should serve as a basis for updating the operational regulations of the waterworks and for assessing whether the methodology used is suitable for this type of water supply system.
