In some area's/countries - yes. What I was referring to would be your towns/cities and heck in the UK, we have most accomodation plumbed for water going in and out.
Some countries/area's have what they call storm drains.
Yes they all end up at the river, ideally for the sewage - after it is treated, though again mileage may vary from country to country.

Dams don't get built in deep canyons for convenience: the sites are chosen because they maximize the height of the water column. The potential energy of a municipal sewage system, while not zero, since there is flow, is so small as to be useless, unless your city is bisected by a 400 foot cliff.
