YOUR words...MOST of these.
Cut and pasted from a website.
What do you think that I put down my sink or shower is going to kill or harm plant or wildlife??
Especially when I dig a hole 18" deep and cover it up when I'm done?

California has legislated household use of gray water for irrigation since 1992. Since, the state has developed standards for plumbing design and equipment to ensure that gray water is safe for intended uses.
In 2010, for instance, California simplified its plumbing code to make it easier for homeowners to divert household wastewater for use in their yards.
Communities, too, have addressed gray water. San Diego, for example, voted to ease its gray water rules in 2013. However, cities or counties can also adopt more restrictive standards if they wish.
According to official figures, a typical California household produces more than 10,000 gallons of gray water between May and October."
So if you can water your lawn in CA with the gray water from you house, just how much damage to the environment do you think I'm doing with what little I leave behind?
