Tips for Businesses

If you own, manage or help operate a business, especially an industrial, construction or manufacturing company, you can help reduce stormwater pollution.

Evaluate Your Actions

Think about the things you do everyday and look for ways to reduce runoff into the storm drains, especially in areas like parking lots.

Recycle Hazardous Materials

Recycle the hazardous materials you use, like ink and solvents for commercial printing, or polishes and chemicals for car detailing or manufacturing after-market accessories.

Choose Non-Toxic

Take advantage of less-toxic alternatives to dangerous chemicals. From detergents to drain openers, there are a lot of ways to get the same or better result without having to rely toxic substances.
