I wash my peterbuilt tractor at home is this a deq issue?

albany41m asked:


I USE HOT WATER AND DISH SOAP TO WASH MY 2003 PETERBUILT. I HAVE HAD SOME NEIGHBORS SAY THIS IS AGAINST THE LAW. I JUST WASH THE SHEET METAL LIKE YOU WOULD YOUR CAR AND DO NOT USE COMMERCIAL CLEANING CHEMICALS. IS THIS A ISSUE IN THE STATE OF OREGON.

    This is from a pollution prevention site for Oregon.

    Technically, only water can run into the sewer.

    Rinse off car bodies and truck beds with water only. Use mild detergents to wash vehicle bodies on gravel, grass or loose soil that water can filter through. If you wash vehicles on a paved area using soap, or wash the engine area of the vehicle, you should:
    • Cover storm drains;
    • Drain wash water to a sanitary sewer, or;
    • Install a wash water recycling system
