sanitation facilities
Waste disposal systems
Sanitation facilities are infrastructure for human waste disposal and hygiene—toilets, latrines, sewage systems, and related structures.
The term appears most often in development contexts, public health discussions, and humanitarian reports: The refugee camp lacks adequate sanitation facilities.
It's a formal, somewhat bureaucratic way of saying bathrooms or restrooms.
