What Komunalny Zakład Budżetowy does

Komunalny Zakład Budżetowy w Dusznikach (KZB Duszniki) is a communal budget establishment (zakład budżetowy) wholly owned and controlled by Gmina Duszniki, a local municipality in Greater Poland Voivodeship, Poland. Founded in 1994, the entity delivers essential municipal infrastructure services — drinking water production and distribution, wastewater collection and treatment, municipal waste collection for businesses, administration of 43 communal apartments, and management of the communal cemetery in Sędziny — to the residents and businesses of Gmina Duszniki. It serves approximately 1,800 water connections with near-100% coverage of the municipality, operates a 96 km sewage network connecting 6,776 municipal residents, and through three sewage treatment plants serves a broader population of 8,539 users including those from neighboring municipalities. The organization employs 24 full-time staff under a single manager (Kierownik), chief accountant, and maintenance engineer.

The technical backbone relies on natural water-treatment methods. Raw water is drawn from deep wells 60–80m below surface and processed through natural gravel filtration without chemical treatment; chlorination is applied only during planned pipeline flushing or in response to bacterial contamination alerts. Three water treatment stations (Duszniki, Kunowo, Sarbia) and three wastewater treatment plants (Duszniki, Grzebienisko, Podrzewie) form the operational core, supported by power-generator backups at all water stations for continuous operation. Infrastructure comprises 250 km of water supply network, 96 km of sewage network, and 45 home sewage treatment installations, complemented by a specialized sanitation fleet — most recently expanded by a 12,000-liter sanitation vehicle added in January 2026.

Revenue is generated through regulated, multi-stream tariffs: a recurring subscription for water supply, usage-based sewage fees at 25.00 zł/m³ net (with a 100 zł minimum charge per course under 4 m³), a separate 180.00 zł/m³ fee for septic tank emptying, and transaction-fee waste collection for business entities. A new three-year tariff was approved by the Regional Water Management Authority in Poznań effective July 6, 2024. Distribution is entirely direct-to-municipal with no geographic diversification beyond Gmina Duszniki, and customer-facing infrastructure includes an Electronic Customer Service Office (EBOK), electronic invoicing, and SMS notifications for water supply interruptions. Waste collection operations were partially transferred to the inter-municipal association Związek Międzygminny \"Selekt\" from September 1, 2025.
