área de lavado


Explanation:
I think "área de lavado" is a good option for that area destined for washing if you want a concrete translation, although I think I wouldn't use it that way. I would skip "can wash" and go "un área/zona con un drenaje adecuado..."

área de lavado de latas/botes


Explanation:
Me parece que se refiere a un lugar donde se puedan lavar las latas, pero también podría referirse a los baldes/cubos//tachos usados en las operaciones del puesto. Tendrás que elegir el o los términos más adecuados para "can" según el contexto más amplio de tu texto.

sector para el lavado del tacho de basura


Explanation:
Creo que se refiere al sector donde se lavan los "garbage cans". Podría ser "cubo" en vez de "tacho", pero si es para Argentina "tacho" esta bién, no?

Yo empezaría así:
"El puesto debe contar con un sector para el lavado del tacho de basura con un drenaje adecuado................."
Sigo pensando que se refiere a "garbage can" porque menciona "disposal of waste water"

o "recipiente de basura" quizás quedaría mejor..............
