You should consider the impact on the area.

If you are in the middle of nowhere and that area sees very little use, then a bit of dishwater may not effect much.

If you camp in a heavily used area, then hundreds of campers per year are dumping thousands of gallons of grey water, then it could be a real problem.

When it rains, this stuff will drain into the streams and rivers.

I sure wouldn't want to campout in an area where you dumped your dirty water.

Oh, and while your at it, clean up after your dog!
