What is an "outfall"?
An outfall is the point where water or waste flows out of a system, such as a pipe or drainage channel, into a larger body of water like a river, lake, or ocean. It is typically designed to release treated or untreated water, stormwater, or wastewater safely, preventing flooding or damage to the surrounding area. Outfalls are commonly found in areas where water management systems are in place to control the flow of water and protect the environment. They help direct excess water away from populated areas and into natural water sources.
Example
The outfall of the stormwater system is located near the edge of the river.
Odtok dešťové kanalizace se nachází poblíž okraje řeky.
The workers are repairing the outfall to prevent any water from spilling into the nearby park.
Dělníci opravují odtok, výpust, aby zabránili jakékoliv vodě, která by mohla vytéct do blízkého parku.
