Japanese term

しゃ集管きょ

Japanese to English Tech/Engineering Construction / Civil Engineering Sewers
This is from a description of the Tokyo sewer system. The term is written as above in both Hiragana and Kanji. For reference, here is the entire section referring to the term.

汚水と雨水を同じ一本の管で流す合流式下水道には、大雨のときに大量の雨水が流れ込みます。これをすべて水再生センターで処理するには膨大な施設が必要となるため、雨水を吐口から河川に放流しますが、その際に、雨水で希釈された汚水の一部が流出し、水質汚濁の一因となっています。
このため、しゃ集管きょ(*)を太くしたら、処理しきれない下水を一時的にためる貯留池をつくり、雨の日に下線に流出する漁や階数を減らしていきます。

(*)河川や海へ放流を減らすため、汚水に加えて一定量の雨水を水再生センターに送水する管きょ。

Any suggestions?

This following source describes what an "intercepting sewer" does, which seems to match what the Japanese sources say: http://www.mrsc.org/mc/wac/WAC 458 TITLE/WAC 458 - 20 CHAP...

管渠 = culvert

Using kana is all very well, but Google finds more hits for the kanji.

http://www.gesui.metro.tokyo.jp/gijyutou/jg14/jg14_124.htm uses kana and defines the term:
合流式下水道において、雨天時に雨水吐やポンプ所から汚濁濃度の高い下水が公共用水域に排水されないよう、一定量の下水を処理場に導く管きょをいう。

Thanks to Kathy for the kanji. Lots of hits outside Tokyo. I guess Tokyo assumes that contractors are illiterate.
