Mike Up,
And just where do you think the septic tank flow goes when it flows out as new sewage comes in? The drainfield only about a foot under the ground surface of course. You are wrong about getting fined in most states, public forests, larger National or state parks as my sister's son worked for several decades in Michigan State Parks and then I Sleeping Bear Lakeshore National Park before retiring and He is the one who told us it was legal to do the dig and dump and replace properly and legally and even showed me the written law stating so.
I/we have in the past passed this info on to so mamy others and not one has ever said they had even been as much as hassled by any law inforcement, DRN, or Rangers. Try to convince somebody else as we know better!
Yes, we always but and use with the swing out dump spout and NEVER made any mess or spills and always flush the toilet until it's clean clear water. Always also use a disolving toilet chemical and shake the waste tank before dumping and everything that comes out is always liquid and not chunks. How fast you dump the waste tank into the toilet dictates any possibility of splashes. Do it right with the waste tank spout down the the toilet water level and you have zero problems or splashes! Never hear any gripes from people who do it right so some people msust be smarter than others!
As per usual, you are flaunting laws of the land and advising others incorrectly. I'm sure Mike knows what can and can't be done regarding his waste.
Here is a paragraph from the National Park service on disposal of human waste:
Human Excreta Disposal
The disposal of human excreta or waste is regulated by the federal Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) and the Clean Water Act(16). These
regulations require human waste to be properly disposed to protect human
health. It is prohibited to dump waste on the ground, in surface waters, or in
a landfill. Proper disposal requires human waste to be disposed at an approved
wastewater treatment plant or approved on site wastewater system.
Now you can also tell others your views about waste oil disposal.:M
