Waste Water Reuse

Reusing grey and black water is a great way to conserve our precious supply of water.

What is grey and black water?

Grey water comes from sinks, showers, bathtubs and appliances like washing machines and dishwashers. It does not include water from toilets.

Black water is sewage water from toilets.

It's very important that both grey and black water are treated and managed properly to ensure public health and safety.
