I think "dump station" is probably intended to refer to facilities intended to receive the sewage from chemical toilets on board recreational vehicles, and from man-portable chemical toilets (basically a bucket with a seat and a tight-fitting lid). These concrete chemical toilets you describe would be a facility of the campground, and a "honey truck" would come to them, rather than the toilets being transported to a dump station. -- John F.
