The County has two water services providers; Iten-Tambach water and Sanitation Company (ITWASCO) currently serving Iten and Tambach areas and Cherangany-Marakwet Water and Sanitation Company (CHEMAWASCO) which serves Kapsowar and Kapcherop Towns. Their mandate is to to undertake water provision to consumers commercially. For the rural population, water supply systems are run and operated by Water Users through Project Management Committees (PMCs). PMCs are mandated to levy charges for the operation and maintenance of the supply systems. Water Resource User’s Associations ensure control of water abstractions and catchment conservation.
