摘要：The main purpose of this study is to determine the optimum pressure level by considering the eco-nomic criteria in case of applying pressure manage-ment and acoustic listening method, which are the most basic leakage reduction methods. For this pur-pose,optimum pressure levels were determined in the pilot regions selected and benefits to be obtained were discussed. The useful flow rate for ALC appli-cation in 4 regions was obtained as zero(0). In these DMAs, it was observed that the benefit to be ob-tained by applying only pressure management in these regions is more than the benefit that can be ob-tained from applying acoustic listening and pressure management together. Due to low water production costs, determining an active reduction strategy in the region will have uneconomic consequences for the Administration. Therefore,if there is no shortage of waterresources, it would be a more ideal strategy to apply PM for DMA4. The results obtained from this study will constitute a reference within the scope of determining the optimum pressure level that will provide maximum benefit economically in the net-work when PM and ALC methods are used together.
