MORGANTOWN, WV, June 28, 2002 -- The latest issue of Pipeline, a free National Small Flows Clearinghouse (NSFC) newsletter, is now online at http://www.nesc.wvu.edu/nsfc/nsfc_pipeline.htm.
This most recent Pipeline issue discusses the state of graywater use in the U.S. Graywater is generally defined as all wastewater generated from household activities except that produced from the toilet and the kitchen sink.
As clean water resources become more valuable, the concept of separating out the graywater from the home's waste stream and using it to supplement the family's water demand is becoming increasingly appealing. The safety and legality of such a practice is discussed.
Pipeline explains small community wastewater treatment issues and technologies to the general public. Each issue features several articles about a single wastewater theme or topic, presented in an easy-to-read, nontechnical style.
Readers are encouraged to reprint Pipeline in local newspapers or include information in newsletters, brochures, and handouts. A list of contacts and resources is provided in each issue.
Located at West Virginia University, the NSFC is a nonprofit organization funded by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to assist small communities with their wastewater concerns. For more information, or to order a copy of this Pipeline issue (Item #SFPLNL28), call the NSFC at (800) 624-8301 or (304) 293-4191.
