We live south of 466. Honestly, I never gave using the irrigation water a thought until recently. I bought a new verbena hanging basket which hung on a low hanger where it could receive irrigation. The sprinkler provided water to that plant, the grass and one more nearby vine. I looked last week and the verbena and the vine looked like they had been sprayed with Roundup (they hadn't) on the side nearest the sprinkler. The verbena has since died and I trimmed the bad side from the vine. It just could not have been anything but whatever came out of that particular sprinkler head! Makes me think twice about what I water with the reclaimed water!
