The article mainly warns against using the water to grow food for human consumption, and in a way that results in human contact. My idea would only grow deer food, in this case the clover idea shared by others.

Next thing they are going to tell me is not to drink out of my garden hose. 😀
Considering that nearly every animal that walks up to my corn piles or rice bran piles craps or pisses in it, I don't see the irrigation being a hazard to the animals.

I agree. And depending on which aerobic system you go with will make a difference. If you spend a little more and go with the triple tank system, the water comes out very clean. Now, I wouldn’t drink it, but no reservations for the purpose mentioned in this thread.

Refugee- I will address your concerns in a couple days because I have a 3 day trade Show in OKC starting shortly. FYI I have 30+ years of wastewater experience and am licensed by ODEQ. and should be able to answer your questions.. Interesting concept though.
