OK so spend at least $500 on a lawyer? I would just wait until I had to appear before a judge and ask him if it's illegal to collect seawater why not arrest everyone who walks out of the ocean with their bathing suits wet.
I said this in another thread about shore water in general (ocean and lake). It was a thread about collecting live pods. Who knows what they have ingested or are carrying. The water is no different. Go back 500 yrs ago and I would have no problem collecting water, pods, etc. from the shore but not now. Pathogens, pollution, sewage, oil spills, etc. It's not worth the risk let alone whether it's even legal. I think people forget there are cameras everywhere now so even when you think no one is looking there is always someone looking.
I spearfish and dive the la Jolla kelp lines. Because this is such a great fishing spot, there's a lot of recreational use The amount of Trash lying on the ocean floor is rediculous. Boat engines, car wheels, steel anchors, I've held onto all of them anchoring to the bottom waiting for White Sea bass to come by.
I'll pee in my sump first..agree. I surf in that water. I pee in that water.
I think they do. I’m not super sure what there filtration methods are though other than ozone. I was told they use it to keep them clear enough to look all the way through since the water is typically cloudy.
One hour of a lawyers billable hour could probably buy you an entire SKID of IO purple
