a none return valve could well be the differance between having your house filled with some else`s sewage or not , you block the drain from your house in the man hole , then use other means to dispose of yours , may be a hole in the ground or a compost loo . thats the individuals choice .
But by blocking the drain wont the back up simply over flow next door ? Allowing bacterial growth and infetion to spread in your area ?

in a shtf situation me and mine come first and foremost , i`d help others as and when i could , but mine are my first priority , as for any kind of bact growth this i think would only happen for a short while .

Ive worked it out now ( it has been a bit hectic to say the least and what with jumping about collecting links and all ) The origional link with a picture shows the valve fitted into the main discharge pipe that runs everyones waste away , Your saying to fit it just onto your outlet , in effect stopping any back flow into your property only .It was the picture that confused me as couldnt work out the benefit of blockin the main sewer pipe ....

And iff you plan to bug out in Wales or around Windemere you may wish to reconsider relocating .
As even foraging maybe out of the question , as the sheep eat the grass and it is contaminated .
SO will be all / anu other plant life .

And once again I will ask you to post a credible source, scientific not a newspaper article, to show that research has been done to prove there is a risk as you say.

Nuclear contamination is the least of my worries, unemployment, poor crops this year and rising food prices, bad winter is why I prep harder and I'm sure many other people do too.

It's time to revise the way nuclear incidents are rated. Failure to do so plays into the hands of anti-nuclear propagandists
