hose. When sufficient liquid is in the tank a swirling action will result that should
take accumulated solid wastes along with the waste liquid when the tank is dumped.
The tanks should be emptied when they reach 1/2 full or weekly to prevent stagna-
tion and overfilling.

Most State Parks have strict regulations about discharging wastes except into
authorized disposal systems. Dumping raw sewage from toilet holding tanks, except
at authorized dumping stations, is universally prohibited. Illegal dumping along the
roadside by a minority of recreational vehicle users has resulted in tough laws, and
has unfairly labeled all camping vehicle trailers as unwelcome in some areas.
Most National, State and private parks have either a central dump facility or
campsite hook-up for sewage. Many of the modern rest areas along the interstate
now have dump stations available. You will find a list of dumping stations from
coast to coast in Woodall’s Campground Directory, Trailer Life’s RV Campgrounds
and Services Directory, Rand McNally’s Campground and Trailer Park Guide, Good
Sam Park Director (Good Sam Club), and other publications. Some major oil com-
panies offer dump facilities at selected stations. Plan ahead and you will find few
inconveniences in proper and legal disposal of holding tank wastes.

When you park in an area with sewer hook up available, the waste holding grey
tank gate valve can remain open once you have connected to the sewer hook-up.
Your sewage holding black tank valve must be closed at all times except when
dumping. One thing you may want to consider prior to dumping your holding tanks
is to allow enough fluid to accumulate in the grey tank before dumping. Then you
dump the black tank first so the grey tank fluid may be used to flush the sewer hose.
