dirty mechanic spilling oil down storm sewer

Stormwater Stan: Vehicle Maintenance Faux Pas

Don’t be a Stormwater Stan! Please remember to dispose of all fluids properly when maintaining vehicles and equipment.

Water entering the storm sewer system is not treated before it enters streams and lakes.

1 gallon of used oil can contaminate 1 million gallons of water.

Dumping oil where it can enter our drainage system is like dumping directly into the stream.

Recycle oil and keep our water clean!
