On November 15th, Greywater Action co-founder Laura Allen met with Jefferson County folks and fans from beyond. Laura introduced a variety of waterless, micro flush, and foam flush toilets and discussed their appropriateness for various situations.
Composting Toilets, Codes & Policies RECORDING HERE
Next, she provided an overview of the codes and policies that can guide their adoption by state and local jurisdictions. Since Laura serves on the Technical Team preparing the 2023 update of IAMPO’s WE Stand, she is well-versed in code options for composting toilets and other water-saving technologies.
WE Stand covers dry toilet systems, urine diversion, thermophilic compost treatment, and water reuse. It is available for adoption by states and local jurisdictions that wish to address climate change and improve environmental health with resilient ecological sanitation and water reuse.
