Vertical water conduit (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

standpipe

(Other definitions for standpipe that I've seen before include "temporary feed" , "Emergency source of water" , "Emergency water supply" , "Source of water during shortage" , "Temporary water outlet" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
