I’m waiting to find out which hotel chain will be stupid enough to cooperate. Instant lifetime boycott.

Maybe Sheryl Crow will also push for a restriction on the use of toilet paper in rooms, down to 1 sheet per dump.

Where, pray tell, does the Constitution give the feds the power to have something called the Environmental Protection Agency?

NUKE THE EPA.

Sort of that, STATES, reject and nullify these unconstitutional federal agencies and acts.

The larger question is whether this is a slippery slope...(rhetorical)

What is the volume that is not defined as ‘wasted’, as all the water is paid for by the motel anyway, and at what point can they say YOU are using too much water AT HOME?

EPA can FO. NSA: Please forward and KMA.

I thought Sheryl Crow said we can use more than 1 sheet during what she called “messy” events in the bathroom. I guess we use our imagination on this one..,....

We had a governor here in N.J. who controlled the bathrooms on the N.J. Turnpike.

I try to stay at a motel that has a free breakfast. I know that all the desk girls are watching me in the shower on that tv they have at the front desk. So, I just hop out of the shower and run down naked and wet to the front desk. I haven’t paid a motel bill in three years. I also get the breakfast room to myself. You have to watch that waffle maker, though. I slammed the top closed one time and burned my.......finger.

Dumb headline.
Monitoring water usage is not what the title implies - cameras looking at you while you shower.

That being said, they have no right to and should not be allowed to do this to any business.

I think the EPA is so full of crap that they should be declared a hazardous waste site.

Is anybody here a Heinlein fan? My first thought was “The Moon is a Harsh Mistress” where one of the heroes was staying at a Moon hotel and taking a nice long shower, enjoying for the first time “unmetered water.”

“noting that the average hotel shower currently lasts about eight minutes.”

Just HOW the HECK do they KNOW this?

They’re not reaching their spying on naked people quota?
The government full of perverts is at it again. I’d never go to a hotel ever again.

8 minute shower? Damn, I’d blow that average right out of the water. I count a hot steamy shower to be not only therapeutic, but a basic human right.

The EPA is out to deny me my civil rights!
