Grey Water Coming Closer To California?

As reported in the LA Times:
"California may adopt a more lenient gray water code as early as August.
Under the new code, a clothes washer or other single-fixture, residential gray water system, such as a shower, could be installed or altered without a construction permit.

That’s a complete reversal of the present state requirement that homeowners installing systems to recycle the waste water from their sinks, showers, bathtubs and laundry machines conform to Appendix G of the California plumbing code, which requires that gr
ay water systems not only be permitted by the appropriate administrative authority but installed underground with extensive filtering apparatus."

Good news, it is about time!
