Preventing Pollution - Pick up or sweep litter routinely and clean up chemical spills instead of washing them down a storm drain. Sediment, litter, and chemicals are all potential sources of pollution that impact our local waterways.
Trying Innovative Best Management Practices:
- Alternative Pavers and Porous Pavement
- Infiltration Basins and Trenches
- Bioretention (Rain Gardens)
- Inlet/Catch Basin Inserts
- On-Lot Treatment
Integrating low impact site design techniques from the LID Center - treat, store, and infiltrate runoff onsite before it affects water downstream.
