I guess the worst case scenario would be someone with a y-valve flushing their head in a badly infected area, trailering to Winni and deciding to dump his holding tank accidentally or purposely because the line at the pumping station was too long or he/she was too cheap to pay $5 to have it pumped. You never know.
I think that these days any boat with the ability to dump overboard is pretty rare. Note to mention there aren't a lot of places on the lake where that would go unnoticed.

But, the sinks on boats with water systems usually rinse over the side, same as the freshwater washdowns, so that could be a potential threat I suppose.
