The Autonomous Municipal Water and Sewage Service (Samae) of Caxias do Sul was created on January 5, 1966 to provide quality basic sanitation to the community. It is a municipal autarchy, with administrative autonomy, whose value is excellence in water supply and sanitary sewage.

To serve the population, Samae Caxias has six water treatment stations, supplied by six catchment basins. The supply systems go through rigorous processes continuously, in order to guarantee the full quality of the water supplied to the city.

For sewage treatment, there are ten stations. They carry out a complex job of removing pollutants present in the waste, returning water without impurities to the environment. During the treatment, the sewage goes through several stages, from grating to disinfection.
