Serbian term or phrase: obodni kanal
Kako su mi objasnili, to je kanal koji skuplja vode sa recimo obliznjih brda i odvodi ih u obliznji vodotok. Zove se obodni jer ide obodom ispod brda. Boundary channel?

margin/edge/drainage canal


Explanation:
obodni kanal > edge canal

Obodni kanal je zaštitna mera kojom se sprečava
prodor atmosferskih i ostalih nadzemnih voda u telo
deponije i sprčava proceđivanje deponije u podzemne
i nadzemne vode.

Edge canal is a protective measure for preventing breaking
of atmospheric and other surface waters into garbage
dump body and leakage of the garbage dump into underground
and surface waters.

9-2 Rigid-Boundary Channels
In the design of a rigid-boundary channel, the channel cross section and size
are selected such that the required dis
charge is carried through the channel
for the available head with a suitable amount of freeboard. The
freeboard
is
defined as the vertical distance between the design water surface and the top
of the channel banks. Freeboard is provided to allow for unaccounted factors in
design, uncertainty in the selection of d
ifferent parameter
s, and disturbance

neutral  Daryo: "boundary channel" might well be one valid option, but in your reference "boundary" is about something totally else: the lining of the channel is "rigid-boundary", the channel itself IS NOT "boundary channel"
