Define: Sanitation Service

The meaning of “Sanitation Service” differs based on where it is used. We list many below, then combine them into one or more market-standard definitions.

How is Sanitation Service defined in a legal contract?

  • Sanitation Service means the hierarchy of activities that include metering, collecting tariffs, treatment and removal of human waste, domestic waste water, and waste stemming from the use of water for domestic and industrial purposes originating within a certain area.
    Seen in 2 SEC filings
  • Sanitation Service means the empowerment to establish, operate, and maintain a system for garbage collection and disposal, or a similar power to provide for garbage collection and disposal.

This definition mentions a service area which may be an organization, and garbage collection which may refer to an individual or company. This isn’t clear, therefore it is omitted:

  • Sanitation Service means the act of destroying, discharging, processing, or purifying water that is discharged from humans or from domestic, trade, or industrial use and all kinds of dirty substances mixed with the water.

  • Sanitation Service means a service provided with a sanitary pan supplied by a particular Commission or any person with whom the Commission has entered into a contract for the provision of the service.
