seems to indicate that the town of cary is interested in doing the grey
water processing and running additional water lines for grey water.
It also looks like you can order a tank truck of water.
Apparently there's already been one incident where someone had
the grey water hooked up to the house plumbing and the clear water
hooked up to the irrigation system...
I don't know about the rest of the area.

Now I'm wondering when the sewage treatment plant near me will be
adding water reclamation and how much they are going to ream me 
for a waste water hookup.
