    This study aimed to design a sanitary and stormwater drainage system for the town of Salache Angamarca La Calle, located in the Salcedo canton, San Miguel parish. To achieve this, specialized hydraulic software was used to optimize the collection, transport, and proper disposal of wastewater and surface runoff. The methodology employed a quantitative, descriptive-inductive-deductive, and analytical approach, utilizing both documentary and field research. It was structured in three fundamental stages: first, demographic, hydrological, and existing infrastructure information was gathered and examined; second, a topographic survey was conducted using geodetic techniques and GPS devices to accurately determine elevations and slopes; and finally, the hydraulic modeling of the system was performed using specialized software to technically calculate the pipes, manholes, and additional structures. The results obtained allowed for projecting future population growth of 1.56% over the 25-year period, calculating progressive sanitary and stormwater flow rates, and defining a technically feasible route that adapts to the natural terrain slope, which ranges from approximately 2,825 to 2,795 meters above sea level. The design ensures gravity-fed operation with appropriate slopes and velocities maintained within the established ranges for self-cleaning, thus preventing sedimentation or hydraulic overloads. The maximum accumulated flow rate in the final section of the network reaches approximately 8.33 L/s. In summary, the designed system meets current technical and regulatory standards, ensuring hydraulic efficiency, operational sustainability, and economic viability by not requiring pumping stations. Furthermore, the incorporation of technologies during the design process increased the technical precision and reliability of the results, contributing to improved sanitary and environmental conditions for the community.
