Don't dump it down the sewer!

Storm drain are for carrying away storm water only!

Never dump anything down the sewer!

Dumping in the sewer can hurt in so many ways...

• Storm water flows untreated to the major waterways, estuaries and the ocean.  When you dump hazardous materials in the sewer, these toxins go directly into sensitive ecological waters.  Even non-hazardous materials can change things like salinity, pH and mineral balances in these waters, bringing harm to the inhabitants.
• Dumping in the sewer clogs the main storm water draining system, making your house more likely to get flooded during a major rainfall event.
• Dumping in the sewer increases maintenance and repair costs which translates into higher taxes.
