Spanish term or phrase: Poza disipadora
It is a research to improve water quality where they mention the creation of Bocatomas de captación y pozas disipadoras.

I have found it as "water intakes and bafflet outlets " but Im still unsure about the second concept.

Your help will be much appreciated.

Many thanks
