We do not have a choice. Far as the irrigation water, I asked the cooperative extension folks about using it on stuff you will eat. The reply was we will get back to you and they never did.
I would imagine the recycled water varies depending on when. Fertilizer, insecticide, dog waste even pool chemicals are all in it.
