As storm water flows over our lawns, driveways and parking lots, it picks up fertilizers, oil, chemicals, grass clippings, litter, pet waste, and anything else in its path. The storm sewer system then transports these pollutants to local creeks, and eventually the Gulf of Mexico.
As you mow and take care of your yards, please watch that you pick it all up and don’t blow it out into the street and eventually the storm drains!
