IIRC the "off route" adventure caving trip available to experienced cavers in the showcave at Cueva de Nerja in Southern Spain requires an agreement to be signed which includes a promise not to urinate during the seven hour trip. I also vagely recall there being the possibility of wearing incontinence pants for those who were unsure of their ability to refrain from pissing.
I fully understand the concerns of landowners who rely on the water supply and in such instances it should be no problem to observe this requirement. My personal feeling is that taking a widdle in an active cave system with a good stream flow is going to be AOK on the grounds that by the time it's been diluted there's probably less of it being ingested by other people in error than there is if you touch a door handle before eating your sandwiches without washing your hands.
