With the conclusion of the B-Rally in Sevierville, TN in May, George Mauro, Humble Road, put out a Youtube video which combines touring Tennessee, cooking, and scenes and interviews with some B-Rally participants. This is one of the few rallies that is not manufacturer specific and pure Class B. There were 47 vans there.

 
Nice - George is the best YouTuber I've ever watched.

David, what do you think about George's plan to dump his grey water tank driving down the highway with his new Sprinter, highway after highway..........? He does not plan to use dump stations at all. Oh, for everyone this was covered in another video not the one cited above.

I don't know if it is technically legal. In a house all shower, sink and lavatory (so called grey water) drains into a sanitary sewer same as your toilet contents (black water). There is no differentiation. Not all use biodegradable soaps. Bodily fluids get dumped into grey water. We use mesh strainers in our sinks to capture food particles (but mainly hair that fouls a macerator) but still food and oils get into the grey water. I dump cold coffee in the sink. You saw in the interview with the composting toilet urine was going to be dumped into the grey water. The practice is subject to extreme abuse, not necessarily by George, but others that follow like smoker's that claim they dispose of their butts properly or dog walker's that claim they carry out their dog's poop. Evidence shows otherwise. In a concentrated area such as a campground the evidence of trickle dumping will add up to an environmental disaster.
