Keep Our Waterways Clean This Winter
Protect waterways after winter storms by shoveling snow onto vegetated areas and limiting the amount of deicer you use at home. Melting snow will carry deicers and other pollutants into storm drains that drain directly to nearby streams. Deicers of any kind will negatively affect the environment in large quantities. If using a deicer, apply it as soon as snowy or icy conditions appear. Learn more ways to keep our waterways clean this winter by visiting the Keep It Clean Partnership website.

Some restrictions apply. Questions? Call 303-651-8592 or your course of choice.
