Question 9 Sewer facilities

Mark only one box keeping in mind:

a) Toilet facilities can be of private or communal use. "Private" when they are for exclusive use of one family (boxes 1, 2, or 3). "Communal" when it is for the use of two or more families (boxes 4, 5 or 6).
b) Toilet facilities can be connected to a system of sewers (drains) that serve the whole community or part of it; they can be connected to a septic tank, generally constructed in the patio of a dwelling; or they can be a pit toilet or latrine.
c) If the dwelling does not have toilet facilities mark box 7 (without toilet facilities).
