Description
Definition
WTRDISPOSAL reports the household's main method of disposing of dirty water.
The information in WTRDISPOSAL is taken from the household record, linked to the record of the woman respondent. This information applies to household residents, not temporary visitors, so researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2").
