Lot of the local town near me in CT do not have wastewater treatment plants. The storm runnoff goes right into local lakes and long Island Sound.
Carwashes need permits about what they are allowed to do with the waste water, and recycling the water is a big enough pain in the ass without having people add extra oil and grease...
$20 is cheap compared to the required 'save the water and allow to evaporate. Dispose of solids in a legal hazardous waste dump'
