They were permanent floor types, permanent walls, lighting, existence of a clean water source, closed and clean garbage dumps, septic tank distance over 10 m, throwing the garbage in its place, a closed sewage channel, having an absorbing well, distance between the garbage dump and the clean water source over 10 m.
