700,000 gallons is about 450,000 flushes with 1.5 gal toilets. consider how many flushes a person does a day at home and work, about 10-15 roughly. that’s about 30-45,000 peoples’ flushes for a day.

not as much as you’d think but people drink far less water from tap than flush or do laudry with. far more usage is non-drinking - flushing, laundry, showering, cleaning.
