Although an overflowing, leaking dumpster can be foul-smelling on its own; rain showers have potential to wash trash down nearby storm drains and into our water sources. Business owners are encouraged to keep areas around dumpsters clean and sweep often! https://t.co/erc6Uk0a5d

BEFORE YOU WATER YOUR LAWN -- DO THE STEP TEST!

A typical lawn needs 1" of water PER WEEK from rain or irrigation to stay green.

Overwatering creates unhealthy lawns & WASTES WATER that could be used for drinking, putting out fires, recreation, & wildlife. #SmartIrrigationMonth
