Tip 5: Your Runoff
6 Resources
As your stormwater runoff leaves your property, it collects pollutants including trash, oil, pesticides, fertilizers, and more. Those pollutants may then end up in nearby lakes, rivers, and streams where people swim, fish, play and draw drinking water, or in local sewer systems where more problems can arise.
Fact:
Green Infrastructure systems help control stormwater by removing pollutants and reducing the amount of waste that ends up in local waterbodies.
