Quick Facts
Foul Drains - This is the water you use everyday and it goes down the Foul drain to a Wastewater Treatment facility. And after that they put back into the rivers and lakes.
Surface Water Drains - When it rain onto the houses, buildings etc it goes down the drains you see if you go walking outside and it in there but goes straight back to the ocean because it doesn’t need cleaning.
Combined Drains - It’s where both Foul and Surface Drains are combined into one and go to a Wastewater Treatment facility and be put back into the oceans. But you’ll only find these type of drains by more older housing.
