Can I dump in the curbside sewer?
My new house has a curbside sewer for storm water right by my drive way. This is a public sewer and not connected to my house. I'm guessing its illegal to dump my gray water in there? Any one know for...

I guess you and many others either slept through or skipped HISTORY and HEALTH classes...
I grew up and still live in a very rural area and I would have NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT DUMPING RAW SEWAGE into a road side drain.
Now days road side drains are often required to be built with retention ponds, especially when it comes to high density areas like housing developments or malls. Basically put, the water in those road drains goes to these storm water ponds to manage the run off in a controlled fashion. This water is not treated.
He may have skipped health class but you and many other clearly did not read his question. Nowhere did he say raw sewage or black tank. Go to a primitive tent campground. How are folks doing dishes? They are boiling water, mixing with soap, and tossing the soapy water in the woods when your done. Black tank is not even a conversation, but grey tank?? It's shower water? There may be local regulations against it but I personally see no problem. Again people, it's shower water! WAY less soap then a single car wash. I don't do what he is asking but I also think many of you are blowing this out of proportion.
