Interviewer instructions
Complete this item for all occupied housing units selected for your assignment. Circle only one answer for this question.
Mark the category for the source of the water used by the occupants of the house or apartment, whether or not it is in the building or some other place on the property, or if the occupants get water elsewhere. For example, if the occupants get water from neighbors, mark the category for the source of the neighbor's water.
1. A PUBLIC SYSTEM ONLY
Circle the number of the appropriate response in the box if there is running water which comes from any common source supplying 5 or more houses or apartments. The water may be supplied by an island or city water system, water district, water company, etc., or it may be obtained from a well which supplies 5 or more houses or apartments.
2. A PUBLIC SYSTEM AND CISTERN
Circle the number of the appropriate response in the box when there is running water which comes from a public system and there is also a cistern in which rain water is collected.
3. A CISTERN, TANKS, OR DRUMS ONLY
Circle the number of the appropriate response in the box when the only source of water is a cistern, tanks or drums in which rain water is collected. Such sources usually serve only one structure.
4. VILLAGE WATER SYSTEM
Circle the number of the appropriate response in the box when there is running water which comes from any common source of water supplied by the village or community water system.
5. A PUBLIC STANDPIPE
Circle the number of the appropriate response in the box when there is a vertical pipe which is connected to a public water system, and from which nearby residents draw water.
6. INDIVIDUAL WELL OR A SPRING OR OTHER
Circle the number of the appropriate response in the box when the water is obtained privately from an individual well, spring, rivers, irrigation canals, creeks, ponds, lakes, or other sources not listed separately.
If the unit is connected to a public sewer - you have recorded either code 1 or code 2 - ask “Is public service 24 hours?” If the service is usually continuous, mark 1 for “Yes”, if the service is often interrupted, mark 2 for “No”.
