With the increase of urbanization and in order to meet the needs of the growing population, water resources are constantly exposed to improper use and as a result, it is depleted. Considering climate change and global warming as a result of increased evaporation as well as water pollution from domestic and industrial uses, addressing the issue of water scarcity becomes more necessary. With the outbreak of "COVID.19" from the end of 2019 and its continuation until now, the need for frequent hand washing and other hygiene has doubled; This exacerbates the existing water tensions. According to the reports of the Water and Abfa Macro Planning Office, the consumption of drinking water in our country has increased by 33% from February 1998 to August 1999 compared to the same date last year. In the event of an outbreak of infectious diseases, in particular COVID.19, the availability of safe water to the public plays an important role in raising the level of hygiene and reducing the costs associated with it. In this study, first water consumption management strategies were identified and then with the help of identification and analysis tools, the superior strategy was determined. Based on the studies conducted so far, 4 strategies "Public Awareness", "Incentive Policies", "Punitive Policies" and "Restrictive Policies" were considered as general water management strategies and then with the help of SWOT strategy matrix " Incentive policies were identified as a sustainable water management strategy in the event of an outbreak of infectious diseases. The options related to the superior strategy were limited by the decision tree, and finally the best options were identified using a multi-criteria evaluation method. "Lottery of pilgrimage and tourism tables", "Granting vouchers for essential goods", "Promotion of rank and degree", "Granting low-interest loans", "Granting subsidies or discounts for purchasing equipment for consumption reduction", "Annual tax discounts", "Interest-free lending for water-reducing equipment", "Branding of low-consumption buildings" and "Increasing the quota of other subsidized items" were selected as 9 options related to the "incentive policies" strategy, and finally using the modified AHP method. Which, considering 23 indicators, examines 4 economic, social, environmental and technical criteria in two difficult and ideal conditions and thus creates 431 different scenarios. The quotas of "other subsidized items" and "granting the purchase of essential goods" were selected with the highest score in 296, 129 and 6 scenarios, respectively.
