We used to have our sump pump drain into the down spout drain from the roof,
thinking it was going into the storm drain. I discovered the water was back
flowing into the foundation drainage system. In addition we have a high content
of iron oxide in the water. I want to know whether its proper to tap this sump
waste into the sewer pipe that is just a few feet away. Right now I've got the
water going out to a yard cistern, and since we are on hard clay, its turning
into a pond. Thanks Debra
