main sanitary sewer


Explanation:
kolektor (kan.) 1. main drain; 2. main sewer; ... 6. sewer ref. G. r. Vukičević

sewer - ulični kanal, ulični odvodnik, kolektor, cev gradske kanalizacije; ref. Građ. rečnik, B. Vuličević

'Kolektor' u ovom slučaju ima značenje glavne, sabirne kanalizacione cevi u koju se ulivaju otpadne vode iz svih ostalih cevi instalacije ulične kanalizacije (u Raškoj) a zatim iz nje izlivaju direktno u reku.

Inače kolektor (otpadnih voda) je bilo koja (spoljna) kanalizaciona cev u koju se ulivaju otpadne vode iz drugih, u odnosu na nju, sekundarnih cevi spoljne kanalizacije.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanitary_sewer
A sanitary sewer (also called, especially in the UK, a foul sewer) is a type of underground carriage system for transporting sewage from houses or industry to treatment or disposal.

Ova rečenica:
...rekom Raškom,kolektorom sanitarnih otpadnih voda grada Raške koje se u Ibar izlivaju bez neke prethodne obrade.
nije baš najjasnije sročena ali značenje je da se u reku Rašku direktno izliva kolektor sanitarnih otpadnih voda grada Raške a ne da je reka Raška kolektor.
Bolja konstrukcija bi bila npr.: "...rekom Raškom tj. kolektorom optpadnih voda grada Raške..."

To se vidi i iz sledeće rečenice:
"Pored glavnog kolektora postoji i više manjih izliva fekalnih voda koje se direktno izlivaju u vode Ibra."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sewage_treatment
Raw influent (sewage) includes household waste liquid from toilets, baths, showers, kitchens, sinks, and so forth that is disposed of via sewers. In many areas, sewage also includes liquid waste from industry and commerce.

sewage recipient


Explanation:
To me it is clear that the river receives all the sewage from the town and thus they call it a 'collector". But it is better to translate it as "recipient".
