I think what we're saying is that the regulation can sometimes be worse than what is being regulated. For example, as SuperBee mentioned, how much of a carbon footprint do these water reclamation systems have? For someone washing ~100 cars a year outside, I am going to guess that it's a net loss to the environment, and a net loss to the business owner.

And how far do we go? This weekend I pressure washed the front my my house. I wouldn't drink the run-off from that either - will I need a water reclamation system around my house soon?
