As water flows over roads, sidewalk, driveways and other impervious areas, it picks up debris, chemicals, sediment and bacteria. Storm water is NOT CLEANED before it reaches creeks and streams. Storm water is considered non-point source pollution. Non-point source pollution originates from many different places or a widespread area. Everyone contributes to this type of pollution when disposing of fertilizers, pesticides, oils, greases, pet wastes and trash improperly.
|
| |
| Examples of non-point source pollution include: |
| |
- Sediment – construction activities, farming, logging, mining and runoff from neighborhoods and businesses
- Bacteria and Pathogens – improperly treated sewage and animal wastes
- Nutrients and Pesticides – fertilizers, decaying lawn debris, detergents, sewage and animal wastes
- Oil and Grease
- Antifreeze and Metals
- Paint
- Chemicals and Cleaners
- Litter and Debris
