sanitation

Substantiv

1. 1

   The hygienic disposal or recycling of waste.

   To lovers of Victoriana it will not be necessary to enlarge on the original beauty of many [old stations], but to the modern traveller romantic nostalgia will not compensate for bleak, draughty waiting rooms, ancient sanitation, uncomfortable grimy seats and gas lighting; he is likely to prefer the comforts of a modern car on a winter's morning.

2. 2

   The policy and practice of protecting health through hygienic measures.
