Tech/Engineering - Environment & Ecology / water purification | | French term or phrase: canalisateur(s) | I am looking for the proper term here. There is little context that would help as it is among a list of trade unions. The US equivalent might be something like 'plumbing trades' or 'plumbers' (e.g.: http://www.ua.org/trades.asp) but I think this relates to laying and maintaining pipelines/piping for the water supply system at the national level, rather than the tradesmen that fix interior plumbing.
le syndicat professionnel des canalisateurs de France (CDF)
I am sure there is an official translation for this but have not identified it.
Any ideas are welcomed.
