RE: [SilverStreak] Gray water tanks

No doubt having a gray water tank is a plus and I don't like having to use
the blue tanks as the more times you have to handle waste water the more
likely a spill---phewwww.  Worked with Texas Baptist Men last year and they
have a inventive solution to the waste water disposal.  When on site the men
s trailers are parked close--6 to 8 ft apart and not moved for 2 weeks.
They use a macerator pump with a 110 volt motor to grind the waste and pump
it via l 1/2" hose to the sewer.  Works pretty slick.

David,

Effective in 1973, the EPA mandated that "Grey" water could no longer
be run out onto the ground.  I believe that most 1973 Silver Streaks
had a grey water tank, and all Silver Streaks from 1974 on had a grey
water tank.  My 1972 has had a 30 gallon gray water tank installed as
some point in the past.  I prefer a grey water tank to a tank on
wheels, but to each his own.

When did gray water tanks become required on travel trailers.  My 71
