The irrigation water is reclaimed water which is far from sewage water. It has been treated to a level just short of drinking quality which is why it is classed as non-potable. In Caroline, the outside hose bibs are the same as the interior water, i.e., potable. I suspect the other poster was being told about the irrigation water, not the water from the hose bibs.
