Wanting to confirm that my understanding is correct....

Of the following, which can be used for irrigation

Drinking/Potable water (YES, but not ideal)

Clothes washer water (Yes, but not ideal)

Bathwater (Yes)

Sewage (NO)

 

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated as always.

  Yes, you're correct.  Grey water can be used for irrigation.  Grey water includes bathwater and water from the washing machine.  Michael Ermann from AmberBook says that grey water from a washing machine is actually very good for irrigation.  Black water, which cannot be used for irrigation, includes sewage and water from the kitchen sink (anything with food or human waste).
