Abstract
The work has the cognitive goal, expressed by the desire to expand knowledge and re-evaluate some of current views on the safety of collective water supply systems (CWSS). These systems belong to the critical infrastructure of urban agglomerations functioning. The work presents the systemic approach to the problems of threats. The interpretation of the Pareto principle in the safety assessment was presented. The system resilience indicator was defined on the basis of direct and indirect risk. Global unreliability indicators referring to the supply of water was presented. The mentioned issue of preliminary analysis of the water supply services level is aimed at developing standards in this area.
