I don't know if RVIA standards have the force of law, but since TMs display the RVIA sticker, they meet RVIA standards.
In the summer when the gray water has been "percolating" for a few days, I can sometimes smell it on the bathroom side of the TM. Perhaps the GW tank is vented through a styrofoam channel and out the black box mentioned in the post above.

However, I have read on the web that the GW tank should be vented at its highest point, and this black box is near its lowest point. The highest part of the tank is on the door side. On my TM, there is space between the tank and the floor of the TM on the door side. Perhaps the tank is vented into this space?
