The text recommends placing the outhouse away from wells and springs, especially below the well on downward slopes, and keeping a minimum distance to prevent germs entering groundwater. It also explains siting relative to the house to reduce smell and flies, maintaining a clear access path, and managing the pit by allowing shower drainage only when safe, then filling and digging a new pit when waste reaches unsafe levels.","Building an Outhouse  \nConstruction du cabinet  \nEnglish, Français Health  \nBuilding an Outhouse  \nConstruction du cabinet  \nOriginal French text used with permission from “Construction du  \ncabinet,” Atelier de Matériel pour l’Animation (AMA) B.P. 267, Yaoundé, Cameroon.  \nImages by MBANJI Ernest Bawe.  \nEnglish, Français  \nCopyright © 1997, SIL Cameroon  \n[http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/](http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/)[ ](http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/)[You may not use this work for commercial purposes.

When building an outhouse, you should choose a place that is far from the water source. Never build it on a hill above the source, otherwise you will contaminate the water in the source.  \nIl faut toujours construire le cabinet (le W.C.) loinde la source .  \nCe village, construit sur une colline a beaucoup de maisons. Il y a aussi une source en bas de la colline. Pour construire un W.C. , on choisit un endroit éloigné du point d’eau, jamais sur la colline en haut près de la source, pour ne pas contaminer l’eau de la source.  \nTo build an outhouse you should choose a place that is away from the well .  \nThis village has three compounds and a well where the families get water. When you want to build an outhouse, you should choose a place that is as faraway as possible from the well, to not contaminate the water that is in the well.  \nPour construire un cabinet (un W.C.), tu choisis un endroit éloigné du puits .  \nCe village a trois concessions et un puits où les familles viennent puiser l’eau. Quand une famille veutconstruire un cabinet, elle va choisir l’endroit le plus éloigné du puits pour ne pas contaminer l’eau du puits.  \nAn outhouse could make the water in the well dirty.  \nOn a downward slope, the outhouse should always be built below the well to not contaminate the water in the well. Even if built to the side, the outhouse should be at least 50 meters away. In this picture, two of the outhouses are in the wrong place. They will fill the ground water with germs. The germs will go down into the water in the well.  \nUn cabinet (W.C.) peut rendre l’eau du puits mauvaise .  \nSur une pente le cabinet doit toujours se trouver en bas du puits pour ne pas contaminer l’eau du puits. Même sur les côtés on éloigne le cabinet d’au moins 50 m. Donc sur le dessin, deux des cabinets sont mal placés. Ils vont donner des microbes à l’eau souterraine et les microbes descendront dans l’eau du puits.  \nThe outhouse should be a bit away from the house, but not too far away . The outhouse should be built a bit away from the house, so that the bad smell or flies don't bother the people in the house. But it must not be too far away, otherwise the people will not want to walk out so far to use the outhouse and not all the members of the family will use it. The path to the outhouse should be kept well cleared to make it easy to get to.  \nLe W.C . est un peu éloigné de la maison, sans être trop loin . Pour que les odeurs ou les mouches qui[peuvent provenir du W.C. ne](peuvent provenir du W.C. ne) gênent pas les habitants de la maison, le W.C. doit être un peu éloigné de la maison.
