The manure and wash-water leaves the pen through the PVC gutter in the back

The concrete top of this cesspool behind a piggery is visible.

A view from the backside of the piggery showing the gutter that transfers the manure and wash-water into the cesspool.

One of ASPA's supply pumps that draws from the water table on the Tafuna Plain.

This cesspool (the top is visible in the foreground) has an overflow outlet, allowing the manure and wash-water to flow on to the ground and down the hill.

This is a typical cesspool used for residential waste.
