Abstract | The purpose of this study was to assess the level of public knowledge regarding household wastewater management, investigate current management practices, and propose guidelines for effective community wastewater management in Kalasin Municipality. The research utilized questionnaires and interviews. A total of 395 households participated in the questionnaire survey. The results indicated that the respondents had knowledge of managing and maintaining household wastewater treatment systems, with an average score of 0.78 ± 0.41. Self-assessment of their understanding of maintaining wastewater treatment systems and discharging effluent showed a high level of comprehension, with an average score of 3.78 ± 1.01. Recommendations: Education should be provided through community leaders, along with material support such as grease traps. Interviews with a group of five individuals involved in wastewater management concluded that public understanding should be enhanced through clear communication and campaign activities to encourage community participation. Budget allocation for support and strict law enforcement is essential. Proposed guidelines for managing the community wastewater collection system include planning and designing the system to suit the area's conditions and the community's context. Additionally, regular maintenance should be carried out to ensure that the system remains efficient and ready for use. |
