The Forbidden City's drainage system is very huge. The reserved ancient rain gutter measures more than 15 kilometers in length, while the subdrain is as long as nearly 13 kilometers.

I emptied everything down the drain.

So these outfall pipes have been retrofitted to shut seawater off from entering the system.

A package Costello dropped in the gutter.

Actually, it's rather nasty, really. Drains and all that.

The Jordanian Water Authority completed construction of a sewerage system in Souf camp that would subsequently be connected to a nearby municipal system, bringing the number of refugee camps in Jordan connected to main municipal regional sewerage networks to 7 out of 10.

Drinking water supplies and sewage systems are being expanded.

In the meantime, works are expected to commence soon for construction of a sewerage system in one refugee camp and water and sewerage systems in another refugee camp in the Syrian Arab Republic.

The flooding was compounded by drainage problems resulting from limited pumping capacity and poor maintenance of drainage systems.

I'll go along the gutter or along the eaves. That's better, isn't it?

Between them there's a waxy finish which repels water.

The final phase of a project for construction of pathways and drains in Husn camp was completed.

They shall also ensure adequate quality and sufficient quantity of discharge water to protect and preserve outside ecosystems dependent on the aquifer or aquifer system.

Any State in whose territory such an aquifer or aquifer system is located is entitled to participate in the negotiation and to become a party to arrangements when such arrangements are likely to prejudice their positions vis à vis that aquifer or aquifer system.

All draining canals inside the Forbidden City lead to the Inner Golden Water River, which connects with a 52 meter wide moat outside the Forbidden City, and is linked to the Outer Golden Water River and other water systems in Zhongnanhai.

Dig ditches.

Access to sewage systems 457. In 1993, 774 out of 860 Polish towns had sewage systems, and 587 of these had sewage purification services 81.6 per cent of the urban population had access to a sewage system, and 62.2 per cent to sewage purification services.

Aquifer States shall identify discharge zones of a transboundary aquifer or aquifer system and, within these zones, shall take special measures to minimize detrimental impacts on the discharge process.

Let me work this with you, Mark. I know this whole district from gutter to rumheads.

The level of sewerage coverage is 56 per cent in urban and less than 10 per cent in small areas.

In many regions, sewers and drainage infrastructures are being cleared of debris to permit water to flow more freely through the system.

They seem to have been replaced by open ditches that connect to feeder canals.

Pending the availability of funds, projects that are on the Agency's priority list, including the final phases of sewerage systems for the middle camps and a sewerage system in the Khan Younis area, estimated at 11.36 million, will commence.

The initial report spoke of an inadequate supply of potable water and a lack of sewerage systems, and although it had been stated that the situation had improved with the provision of potable water to most rural areas, it was not clear how many people still lacked a supply of potable water and a system of sewerage.

Bladders Water purification systems

In addition, Habitat is repairing the Herat city drainage system, and is working with communities to build latrines and solid waste bins and organizing the collection and disposal of solid waste, as well as improving access and modifying water supply systems.

Examples of sectors that could benefit from anticipatory planned adaptation are infrastructure, such as, port and harbour facilities, flood defence systems, water supply systems, sewage systems and urban systems.

Work proceeded on the 8.6 million ECU project to improve sewerage, drainage and water supply systems in eight refugee camps in Lebanon.

Such arrangement may be entered into with respect to an entire aquifer or aquifer system or any part thereof or a particular project, programme or use except insofar as the arrangement adversely affects, to a significant extent, the use by one or more other aquifer States of the water in that aquifer or aquifer system, without their express consent.

This is a photograph I found lying in a gutter in New York City about 10 years ago.

The United Nations system needed to build bridges to the many civil society coalitions.

Israel had a strategic plan for sustainable development, including systems for recycling water and sewage effluents, and desalination plants.

Aquifer States shall protect and preserve ecosystems within a transboundary aquifer or aquifer system.

Arrangements for the Galaxy System

I was merely going to remark in all innocence that my family can remember when your family climbed out of the gutter.

What I'd like to do is just drag us all down into the gutter, and actually all the way down into the sewer because I want to talk about diarrhea.

The construction phase of the 8.6 million European currency units project to improve sewerage, drainage and water supply systems in eight refugee camps in Lebanon commenced.

You ought to be thrown out into the gutter!

Rows of freshly dug trenches were seen along the fields.

The incumbent would be responsible, on a regular basis, for the operation of the sewage truck, including emptying septic tanks, clearing drainage pipes and topping up the chlorination systems.

And I said, Oh, he's not here long enough to unblock a drain.

The damage inflicted on drainage and irrigation systems by the floods will continue to affect thousands of livelihoods for some time to come.
