The United States does the same thing all over the Southwest. Rural people will tell you.

It might be the same as Canada where you only can with a permit just to be sure people aren't drinking mold water

There's a difference between needing a permit to collect rainwater because the water belongs to everyone, and being forbidden from collecting rainwater because the water belongs to an oppressing party.

isn't the point there that shit is super dry and if you leech the water in the wrong places the ground can't handle it?
