Interviewer instructions
<svar a=" ID05A041" v="ID05A041 ID05A042">Question 522: Main source of drinking water<br />Ask the main source of drinking water that the respondent's household uses. If there are several sources of drinking water, ask which source the household uses most. If the source of drinking water depends on the season, record the most recently used source. If a household gets its drinking water from a single source and it is piped into the house, then record that source.<br /><div class="i1">"Piped water" is water from a source that has been filtered and purified at the drinking water reservoir such as from a drinking water company, either private sector or government.<br /><br />"Protected well" is ground water that is drawn by bucket or ladle; the well is protected by a brick wall and a surrounding platform so that water from outside sources cannot seep into the well. Water that is pumped out of the well either by hand or by electric/diesel pump is considered a protected well.<br /><br />"Unprotected well" is a source of ground water that can be drawn by ladle or bucket that does not have a concrete wall; it is possible that water that has been used outside the well can seep back into the well.<br /><br />"Spring water" is a source of water on top of the ground which springs out by itself. It is classified as protected (code 04) if the spring is protected from water used for bathing, washing, and other purposes.<br /><br /><span class="pg">[p. 88]</span><br /><br />"River water" is water that is taken from a river.<br /><br />"Lake or dam water" is water that is taken from a lake or dam.<br /><br />"Rain water" is water that is collected into containers during rain falls.<br /><br />"Bottled water" is water that has been bottled commercially such as Aqua, Vit, Airess, MQ, refilled water, and others.<br /><br />"Others" are any sources of drinking water that cannot be classified into the above categories, such as sea water, and pool/pond water.</div><br /><br />Drinking water from piped water, protected and unprotected wells includes those that are located inside the house, outside the house and in public places. Circle the appropriate code for source of drinking water in Q 522. If the drinking water is purchased, then ask the source of the water.<br /></svar></p>

<p><svar a="all" v="ID05A042">Question 523: Distance to closest sewage disposal<br />If the answer to Q 522 is a well (code "02" or code "03"), ask the distance between the well and the closest sewage disposal. In this case the sewage disposal is not necessarily from the respondent's household but can also be from the next-door neighbor or other households. Fill in the distance rounded to the nearest meter. If there is no sewage disposal because the people in this area defecate in the river, use code 96. The maximum code for distance is 95 meters.<br /></svar>
