Well, IMO no sewage stuff should be kept in the same compartment with any fresh water stuff in a tub or not.
Been using this method to store my sewage gear for 6 years ago when I bought the TT and had a black tank (Popup didn't have one). Never had any cross contamination causing illness or breakout of any zombie causing disease. I will add that I do rinse out the hoses and the sewage container with soapy water and then fresh when I wash the camper a couple times a year. Then I let them air dry in the sun before putting them back in the tub at the end of the day. To each their own. This works for me.

There’s also a “drying” issue (rinsed or not) at least for me. Wet stuff in a closed container?
I'm guessing you hook your fresh water hose up to an air compressor every time you tear down camp, blowing it dry before putting it in a storage compartment?
Too much work for me. Containing a few drops of water left in a hose (fresh or sewage) after I have drained them (and then rinsed for the sewage hose) in a tub is much better than putting that in a storage area uncontained, IMO. At worst, I have found maybe a quarter dixie cup worth of water in a tub after a trip home or upon the next time I opened the tub to setup. Usually none. But I'm glad it was in the tub and not in my storage bay. It's very easy to wipe out with a couple paper towels vs. having it soak into my storage area floor.
