No. Just do it at night.

You might want include in your political statement how much money we could save with open trenches for sewers. No need to bury that stuff underground. I hope that lake you are peeing in is also receiving the effluent from a dozen campgrounds where they dump their grey water in the storm sewer system.

Ok lets just go ahead and start arresting people that wash their cars outside water the yard that has chemicals on it and MY GOSH let shoot all those animals out there that pee and poop outside. And for the love of god dont ever pee in the lake when you are out swimming that should be a 6 years in prison for sure. Wow No wonder obama got elected twice this country is in deep black water!

When the grease from the chili skillet mixes with the scrapings from the spaghetti plate, the water is no longer "grey". Anyone who has opened a cesspool where nothing but kitchen and other "grey" water is housed would understand why it is not a great idea to dump it in the storm drains. One person doing it occasionally will probably not have a huge impact on the environment, but how about if we all do it, and sneak in a little black, because it is all "natural". That's what they do in third world countries, why not here?

I suggest the OP just dump his tanks in his garden or flower bed.
Makes all kinds of stuff grow.

Help,,, I am running out of pop corn. That is pop, with one o.

OR,,,,,,,,,,,,If no one sees ya dump it,,,,,,does it count??? No harm No foul!! Wont hurt a thing!!! Or if you live close enough to see your neighbor doing it then its probably not a good idea!!

Kinda like the tree in the forest thing!! Who Cares!!! I am upstream!!! Dump away good man!!

IMHO, y'all are getting WAY too worked up over a simple question with a simple answer....just call your local office and ask. Most likely into the storm drain is not allowed, but nothing to say you couldn't dump the GREY water (containing Dawn, some shampoo, misc clean stuff) in your own BACK yard - you're right about tent campers, etc who dump their dishwashing pans into the woods. Legal or illegal, my guess is that you likely have a neighbor who'll pitch a fit if you're doing this out front and then it'll turn into this thread.

We park our TT in the "Rockport" - AKA covered parking area. It's got 4' of fill, retaining walls, rock topper and it's in our back yard. And, gasp, we have been known to empty some grey water onto the rock - usually after washing out some wine glasses or snack plates after spending some time our there between camping trips. We prefer to tow with empty grey and black tanks. We're actually fairly intelligent people who happen to live in the outskirts of our town/outside city limits AND we have a septic tank...another gasp. Two totally different creatures. Descriptions of septic tanks and how they work is pretty much accurate other than you generally add a product containing various bacteria to keep the tank working properly.

BTW, the other topic to avoid at all costs is....never, never, never ask what brand of tires you should buy. It'll take on a life of its own.
