A brief description of the natural wastewater systems used to handle the institution’s wastewater:
Greywater from the Harmony House at the Macoskey Center is also reused; it receives its potable water (for sinks and a washing machine only; a Clivus Multrum toilet/composting system does not require water service) from an unmetered well; this greywater is then treated by a Wastewater Treatment Catchment System consisting of two separator tanks and then reused via a distribution system that directs the waste water to an outdoor aquatic planting area and eventually a meadow.
