The water use charge is in the form of a special charge according to the existing decision of the Constitutional Court. However, the water use charge is unconstitutional in accordance with the Constitutional Court's constitutional criteria for special charge. As the water supply rate of the whole country is 98.8% as of 2015, the supply of water is practically a general public service for all citizens, not a special public service project. There is also a problem in terms of collective identity, objective proximity, collective accountability, and collective utility. Considering this fact, it is necessary to improve the system of impose and collect the water use fees. In other words, the existing water use fee system should be abolished and the necessary resources for the purpose of this project should be implemented by the budget organized by taxation.
