Abstract - Nusa Penida District is experiencing an
meet human needs. Water distribution systems (WDS) are designed to provide water in sufficient quantities and at the required quality without compromising future capacity and standards. The issues of drought, climate variability, pollution, climate change, and urban population development have led to the emergence of various and interconnected water delivery systems [1]. The accomplishment of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is at danger due to inadequate water, which also posessa increased hazards to human health, food production, energy generation, economic development, and poverty reduction. The government must guarantee that the community has access to safe and reasonably priced clean drinking water in order to meet SDG number 6, which focuses on clean water and adequate sanitation [2].
increasing need for clean water along with population growth and tourism, but the drinking water distribution system is still highly dependent on the Guyangan spring which requires many pumps and electrical energy. This study aims to plan the development of a drinking water distribution network by utilizing the potential of the Penida spring and interconnecting it with the existing system in Guyangan to improve technical and economic efficiency. The methods used include an analysis of water needs of 113.34 liters/second (equivalent to 3,572,342 m³ per year), network planning using ARCGIS and hydraulic simulation with QEPANET, and an evaluation of economic feasibility based on NPV, IRR, and BCR indicators. The results show that the interconnection network is able to distribute water from the Penida spring to 11 villages in the central and western regions of Nusa Penida, reducing the operational load of pumps, and increasing the coverage of water services. The economic analysis was conducted on four scenarios related to water prices and subsidies on investment. The water price per cubic meter was obtained at Rp. 3000 which is determined by considering the initial investment costs, annual operational costs, project duration, and interest rates (discount rates). With positive NPV results, IRR approaching or exceeding the interest rate of 8%, and BCR > 1, this indicates that the SPAM network development project is feasible. Therefore, the development of this gravity-based SPAM network interconnection system can be an efficient and sustainable solution for clean water supply in Nusa Penida.
The management and distribution of water to billions of people in need is a crisis that contributes to the global water crisis in addition to water shortages. There are much less water resources available globally, necessitating focused efforts to manage water effectively and efficiently. The use of sporadic supplies, typically determined by necessity rather than design, is one of the most popular strategies for reducing water demand [3]. The sustainable aspect of water supply includes three main objectives: economic, social, and environmental factors related to the functional use of water, as well as the management of clean water and wastewater. Water is mostly used for domestic purposes, such as drinking, cooking, bathing, and cleaning; secondly, for industrial purposes in energy production and manufacturing; and thirdly, for agricultural purposes in irrigation [4].

The exploitation of springs on Nusa Penida Island necessitates complicated infrastructure and significant funding, so the operational system is carried out collaboratively by the Central Government, the Bali Provincial Government, and the Klungkung Regency Government. The Central Government, through the Bali Penida River Basin Center, the Bali Provincial Government, through the Regional Technical Implementation Unit for Drinking Water Management, and the Klungkung Regency
1.INTRODUCTION The most basic necessity for all living things is water. Climate change, development activity, and population growth are the main causes of scarcity. High rates of population increase and climate change have decreased the amount, quality, accessibility, and availability of water to
