THE LINK BETWEEN ILLEGAL SEWER DISCHARGE OF CONSTRUCTION WASTE AND POLLUTION OF WATERWAYS

Most jurisdictions prohibit discharge of construction liquid waste to sewer, and one or more 44 gallon drums do not offer pre-treratment that is acceptable to any regulator. The practice is illegal in most cases.
