I did an office yesterday in which there business is pollution monitoring and "Waterway Cleanliness". Needless to say, I dumped into their sanitary (toilet) through my APO on the Genesis. Good PR for me and for the company just in case someone stopped by and would have seen me dumping into the storm sewer. This was a big industrial park, and i'm sure there were some "EPA" types lurking around. I think waste dumping will be more publized in the years to come. What with everyone having a camera phone, nobody is safe just "dumping".


I just think it's our responsibility to dump Properly, especially in the suburbs and cities.

Green bay has a Rec Vehicle water/dump site.

I pull up and dump with a hose. I'd like to get the free water, but my poor ass doesn't have a FW tank yet. Garden hose for me :lol:

I dump in the sewer drains or the homeowner/property owners lawns. Biggest bunch of BS since global warming became popular. Another tool for states and/or counties to threaten/bully small business.

What if your waste tank is too small to hold all the waste water from a job? Do you unhook in the middle of the job, pack up and go find a dump site? Dump in custy's toilet? On the yard?

Take care,

I have a flexable hose attachwed to the sewer clean out at my house.

Makes dumping easy.

Dump and add couple chlorine tabs while filling fresh water tank and it's ready to go

local self-serve carwash for me. The owner has 3 rentals and we trade off.

Legal too according to the city and state.

In Ohio.......the sanitary will suffice, which means a toilet, or outside cleanout. If I'm out of the small neighbor hoods, I will drain on custys property. Thats why I like the APO's.......drains indescretly instead of a 2" hose monster into the driveway.

Then I ask where they want it dumped. When the custy isn't home, it is really easy. I really need to get a pump-out though.

Is that a city By Law or Provincial, Willy ?
Does the city of Victoria still spew out untreated sewage right into the sea ?

City water works folks here told me that hair and sediment was their real concern.
We just had a sediment pit built, worked great - had a honey truck pump out the sediment ( about 2 sq yds ) once per year.
