I've wondered about the sewer pipes as well. Perhaps these are actually the pipes that were placed for future water purification?

“Ferdinand, what do you think?” Sylvester asked. “Could we use water-purifying magic tools on the river?”

“In the long-term, it would use far too much mana; the magic tools would need to be redesigned to be usable. However, if the water will only be needed in the future, perhaps we could add only the pipes for now? Those alone would not be a significant burden.” - P4V4 (The Archduke Conference Approaches)

Good point. If they are meant to purify large quantities of river water they would naturally need to be big... and since the tools aren't in place, currently unused. And even if they put grates over the openings, Georgine can probably break through them.

Rozemyne wanted the purified water for paper making which might mean that the pipe connects to the temple workshop too.
