    I also live in the country with a septic system, and have worked on
    the assumption (possibly incorrect) that the jewelry wastes WOULD
    damage the system - or at least upset the little organisms working
    away in my septic tank! When I built my studio we put in french
    drains, with long fields of gravel, and my studio "gray waste" goes
    into those. I have also seen studios that had a gray waste holding
    tank, and someone (can't remember who - maybe the honey wagon folks)
    would come periodically and empty it. Note: the french drains were
    designed to feed away from the pond and well!
