I‘m excited to read the news of approved regulations for rain water harvesting! The approval and regulation of Virginians being legally allowed harvest rain water will help preserve the natural water cycle. In any case, rain that falls on sealed surfaces such as roofs or driveways too often ends up in the sewage system. If you store rainwater on site instead, you use it to water your garden. Harvesting water preserves the natural water cycle, almost as if the area had not been ravished by our built up communities at all. It doesn’t stop there, harvested rain can be used for many purposes around the household such as, washing laundry, flushing toilets, and much more Not only is it best for the environment, it will also save consumers’ money. Special thanks to Tyrone Jarvis, owner of GO GREEN AUTO, for his persistence, focus and leadership in seeing the legalization of Harvesting Rain Water Regulations for VIRGINIANS.
