Pesticide washings can usually be sprayed out on a soakaway.

Ideally they should drain to a suitable soakaway or permeable surface, see below.

Raphael and I practiced in the back yard, leaping from the raised concrete soakaway and landing on the grass.
|
|
Initially, a soakaway area was dug in the middle of each lawn, with topsoil and turf put on top.

The filtered waste is not a safe or sanitized material and is normally disposed of in an underground soakage trench or "soakaway".

|
Before opening the distribution valves and spraying the liquid out, decide whether this should be done in the field again or on the soakaway.

A Soak Pit, also known as a soakaway or leach pit, is a covered, porous-walled chamber that allows water to slowly soak into the ground.

Water, extracted from the ground at a fairly constant 11 degrees Celsius, is used to cool the air in the auditorium and is returned via a soakaway.

The soakaway under the cemetery tap has been cleaned out by the odd-job man, who has almost completed clearing the church walls of ivy and brambles.
|
|
The site borders the River Spey and residents are concerned that precious soakaway or catchment land will be removed, sending high waters flooding on to the new estates.

This system pumps water from a primary borehole upstream of the groundwater flow, then discharges it either into a second borehole or a soakaway downstream of the groundwater.
|
|
A standard septic tank system with a soakaway is proposed for the disposal of sewerage, and its percolation area is about 30 metres from the open drain to the east.
|
|
This is hardly surprising, as Misapor insulates perfectly against the ground, is ultra-light, stabilises the subsoil, acts as an excellent soakaway, and is placed in no time at all.
|
|
It was originally proposed to add a new spur path, and ditches at the side of the main path with soakaway pits for drainage; however, these plans were abandoned, partly because of their archaeological impact.
|
|
In the early 1960s the digging of a soakaway in a cottage garden opposite the vicarage unearthed a small pottery bottle from the late 13th or early 14th century, and a bronze scale-pan. An open field system of farming continued in the parish until Parliament passed an Inclosure Act for Lyford in 1801.

Still, in 2015, around 13 million lacked access to "at least basic" sanitation. Sanitation in Burkina Faso is mostly in the form of on-site sanitation, including latrines for defecation and soakaway pits for greywater from showers and washing facilities. Compared to the significant increase in access to water supply, access to adequate sanitation increased only slightly between 2000 and 2015 from 75% to 79% in urban areas and from 2% to 12% in rural areas.

Old drywell A dry well or drywell is an underground structure that disposes of unwanted water, most commonly surface runoff and stormwater and in some cases greywater. It is a covered, porous-walled chamber that allows water to slowly soak into the ground (that is, percolate), dissipating into the groundwater. Such structures are often called a soakaway in the United Kingdom, a soakwell in Australia, and a soak pit in India. A sump in a basement can be built in dry well form, allowing the sump pump to cycle less frequently (handling only occasional peak demand).

Joint Monitoring Program for Water Supply and Sanitation (JMP): Burkina Faso: improved sanitation coverage estimates, 1980-2010, accessed on August 10, 2010 Burkina Faso fully subsidizes the capital costs for latrines in rural areas. Despite this effort, between 2000 and 2008 the number of people defecating in the open in rural areas increased. ONEA has substantially invested in sanitation by helping households to build such shower and washing facilities connected to soakaway pits, as well as improved latrines. ONEA subsidizes these facilities with the support of international donors and with the cash generated by the sanitation surcharge on water bills.

Any sheet of material used to cover a flat or low-pitched roof is usually known as a membrane and the primary purpose of these membranes is to waterproof the roof area. Materials that cover flat roofs typically allow the water to run off from a slight inclination or camber into a gutter system. Water from some flat roofs such as on garden sheds sometimes flows freely off the edge of a roof, though gutter systems are of advantage in keeping both walls and foundations dry. Gutters on smaller roofs often lead water directly onto the ground, or better, into a specially made soakaway.

Consolidated B-24J-65-CF Liberator Serial 44-10600 of the 788th Bomb Squadron Airfield construction began in 1943 for the United States Army Air Forces Eighth Air Force and followed the lines of other heavy bomber bases with a main runway of and two auxiliary runways of each. The perimeter track was in length and this and the runways had a concrete screed finish. Mark II airfield lighting was installed, two T-2 hangars were erected for major aircraft maintenance, and dispersed temporary building accommodation provided for some 2400 men in the wooded countryside of the estate to the south-west of the airfield. During construction, of soil were excavated, of soakaway drains installed and of concrete laid.
