[alberg30] re holding tank

Dear George,
    I have a RARITAN Lectrasan somebody gave me that I havn't installed yet. 
It zaps the waste with about 50 amps for three minutes and is supposed to 
convert it to be legal for discharge in some places. Do you know where and 
where not? I forgot what the guy told me.
Paul,
Ashwagh #23
