I haven't had much chance to look at this yet, but I found it here.

Composting toilets and Grey Water Policy in British Columbia:
Draft regulations are now published and open for comment until April 19th. Gord was part of the group writing this document for the Ministry of Health.



Perhaps someone more experienced with humanure management could tell me what they think about it?

Holy Composting Caca, Batman! Is this ever timely! I'm hoping to get planning my big system this year, for installation next year. One thing I should mention that I saw right away:

This Manual is not intended to educate readers about composting toilets, greywater systems and source
separated wastewater systems, nor is it intended to be a design manual. This is a technical manual, intended for
use by Authorized Persons.

Really? Who is an authorized person? Maybe that's just to cover their asses?

I sent a PM to Art Ludwig, in hopes that he will make a comment on the grey water end of things
 
Hey, check out my mega multi devastator cannon. It's wicked. It makes this tiny ad look weak:
