Whats the difference between sanitary water and storm water?
Sanitary water is the water discharged from all household uses, or other non-industrial operations, including from toilets, showers, and laundry facilities. It is grayish in colour and typically has an odour. Storm water is the water runoff from buildings and land surfaces and infiltration into the ground. It is clear and typically does not contain any odour.
