Are These the Fresh Water Drain Outlets?

I have been looking all morning for the petcocks/valves to drain the fresh water tank and think these are them.  Please verify.  Additionally, I see the two nylon drain outlets beside the two drain ports and would like to know if there is a "snap-on" or push/pull connection for these for drainage?  If there is, one could configure some sort of hose...
Thanks, John. (2022 320S)

    Those are the hot and cold water low point drains valves and drain openings.  The fresh water tank drain is on the passenger side behind the wheel.

    Thanks Sharon, I appreciate your knowledge!  What.kind of drain hose can one place on the drain ports?  I line in an HOA neighborhood and if I drain it in my drive, someone.might think I'm draining the black tank and report me.  So if I can place a hose.on the outlets I can either drain it in a bucket or on the lawn.

    These were designed to empty directly.  I don’t think they are threaded.  If you are allowed to wash your car or TaB, just open your drains and no one will know the water source😊. Many people drive away from the dump with their fresh tank drain open, so, maybe just open these drains there.  It is all clean water.  At your campsite, you can just put a bucket directly under the openings, then empty the bucket into the sink/gray tank, then use the dump station.  The Alde tank holds about 2.5 gallons and the plumbing lines don’t hold too much.  At home, if you can park close to your lawn, just angle a short piece of gutter into the lawn and drain it that way.
