California to Consider ‘Toilet to Tap’ Water Reuse Regulations Next Week
Breitbart ^ | 12/12/202 | JOEL B. POLLAK

Posted on 12/12/2023 7:39:40 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

The California State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) will consider regulations next week that would allow “toilet to tap” reuse of water supplies, treating sewage water and sending it back into ordinary drinking water systems in select municipalities.

As Breitbart News noted back in 2019, new technology, similar to that used for desalination, was being tested on sewage water with a view to recycling that water, expanding the supply of available water in a state that is beset by periodic severe droughts.

With the exception of Newsome and his dictator cromies, everyone else will have to reuse toilet water and tap water for no reason other than utterly unreasonable fear based on NOTHING BUT LIES!!! Craving fear used by the Delusional Lying Left to implement totalitarianism, is always based on LIES!!!

Would be interesting to see if any of this would violate the CA Constitution (not the U.S. Constitution which is generally pointed at the feds).

It would be more cost effective if they used “gray water” for re-use in irrigation systems and other non-potable water systems. Gray water would be sinks and baths.

Once you’ve started it, and this ‘water’ touches pipes around some town....I wouldn’t consider that pipe-system to be safe for humans (or animals). I’d have to move/leave that town.

Water, after the toilet with the possibility of additional solids.

“In 2012, researchers found out that it would take around 30 billion Euros to eliminate estradiol in the water. Estradiolis a type of estrogen. According to studies, more than 2.5 billion women are using contraceptive pills, flush down at the toilets and into the water supply.”

ASK YOURSELF WHY THE FDA runs ads telling people to FLUSH THEIR UNUSED PRESCRIPTION MEDS DOWN THE TOILET?????

OR to throw in the trash ‘for disposal’.

I can just imagine all those overpaid government workers at the sewage plant doing their best at cleaning up that crap water to drink. Not.
