other sources of toxics such as CCA / Methylene chloride / Benzene / Organo-Chlorides / Metallics such as lead / Phosphorus pentachloride .... and so on are all known to be antagonistic to life, have regulations, and are produced in tonnage per second eventually arriving at an auqifer due to hydraulic migration. Rooftop rainwater is probably cleaner than what you drink except for the tars from shingles.

we have been directed to send roof top rain water down to the ground- WILL THIS CONTAMINATE THE GROUND WATER ? terraces are normally used to wash and dry clothes-so detergents are another source of contamination along with bird droppings-is the govt right in making it mandatory for all to have this type of ground water recharge?
