The Residential Pollution Prevention Fact Sheets provide general information on a variety of stormwater management and better housekeeping practices that residents can apply in their backyards and across the community as a whole. The primary goal of each pollution prevention practice is to reduce the amount of pollutants in stormwater runoff by providing basic information on the everyday activities that can help control pollution, like car washing and lawn care. In some cases, reduction of runoff volume is also a focus of the fact sheets (e.g., rain barrels and green rooftops).
The fact sheets are available in HTML and WordPerfect formats.
