Location
140. The different sources of water supply for a dwelling can be located:
a) Inside a dwelling itself.
b) Outside of a dwelling but within the property of the dwelling.
c) Completely off the property belonging to a dwelling.
141. It should be kept in mind that the supply of running water through pipes of the O.S.E. can go not only inside the aforementioned dwelling itself, but also outside them through water pipes for public or common use.
142. When the supply of running water from the O.S.E. comes through common or public pipes, they are found either outside a dwelling but on the property of the dwelling (tenancy), or completely away from said property (public plazas).
143. The last response may be the case, and will be many times, when the source of the supply is a well, tank, or cachimba. And many times when it is a stream or river.
Distance of carrying
144. Write down in the respective box the distance that an informant declares.
145. This notation should always be made when a water supply is not inside the proper dwelling itself, for example: kitchen, bathrooms, etc. If a supply is found on a patio inside a dwelling, away from rooms, the distance of carrying should also be recorded.
