Source coverage and qualification notes
Public AGSA website JSON is an undocumented source contract; refresh failures preserve the last verified publication.
66 municipality-service-year records have positive served counts and false municipal provider flags; source values are preserved separately, without attributing an alternative provider.
Only 2022 revised and 2023 preliminary municipal provider data is captured. Consumer units are not household access or service quality.
