In addition, when applying, drainage methods etc. must conform to the standards. In addition, waste equivalent to industrial waste cannot be drained.

The drainage method (connection method to the sewer) is as follows.

（１） When discharging in a combined area, it flows directly into the connecting basin.
（２） When discharging in a diverted area, let it flow directly into the sewage connection basin.
（３） Drainage associated with construction on the road (including underground) can be connected to the human hole by laying the mounting pipe and flow in.
However, please consult with Public Works Office about connection position, construction method, restoration method, etc.
（４） If there is no connection basin on or near the site, apply for self-financing at Naka Public Works Office, install the connection basin and mounting pipe, and submit an application for temporary use.

When draining construction drainage, etc., install drainage facilities as follows. (Excluding Temporary Office Miscellaneous Drainage and Temporary Toilet Drainage)
