The following public service
announcements are provided in order to provide helpful tips regarding the
protection of our watersheds and waterways. One method of protecting our
watersheds and waterways involves the management of stormwater runoff.
Stormwater can pick up debris,
chemicals, and other pollutants and flow into a storm sewer system or directly
to a lake, stream, river, wetland, or coastal water. Items entering a storm
sewer system are discharged untreated into the water bodies we use for swimming,
fishing, and that provide drinking water. Bacteria and other pathogens can wash
into swimming areas and create health hazards. Debris, plastic bags, six-pack
rings, bottles, and cigarette butts washed into water bodies can choke,
suffocate, or disable aquatic life like ducks, fish, turtles, and birds.
It is hopeful that the
following information will provide helpful tips regarding the protection of our
waterways and watersheds.
