• Here at Wholly H2O, we are fanatics about tying water reuse practices to data.  The problem is, when it comes to rainwater and graywater, there has been very little focus or funding available to create the vital data needed to make good management choices.  Fortunately, at least when it comes to rainwater, there is a lot of research being done on rainwater’s flip side, stormwater (rainwater allowed to run amok without onsite management).
