What we can do at home...

• Clean up pet waste!
• Recycle vehicle fluids and make sure your vehicles aren't leaking fluids in the driveway. This will go into those storm drains...
• When cleaning the driveway or garage sweep up the debris instead of washing it away with the water hose.
• Collect and remove yard waste from mowing and cleaning up your yard!
• Take your car to a car wash that collects the dirty water. When cleaning at home you are just washing the contaminants down the storm drains again.
• Be sure that you follow directions on watering in fertilizers, this will prevent it from washing away into water supplies.
