Where is the best place to dump it safely ?


Depends on how big the pond is, and how much you intend to drain. Pond water
is nutrient rich, and if possible use it to water plants around the garden.
Why waste good water? If it's not possible, then the storm drain is fine,

When I clean my filters, I make an extra effort to use the waste water for
the rose garden, but a 20% water change is more then I can use around the
garden, so I send a bulk of that to the drain
