There are many ways you can help take care of the watershed...

Conserve Water

You can conserve water in day-to-day life: take shorter showers, fix leaks and turn off the water when not in use, use rain barrels, etc.

Discard Safely

Don’t pour toxic household chemicals down the drain; take them to a hazardous waste center. Better yet, avoid chemicals if there are less hazardous alternatives.

Connect with your local facility for specific questions and guidelines:

Brown County Recycling Center

Jackson County Recycling District

Monroe County Solid Waste District

Pick Up after Pets

When pet waste is left on the ground or disposed of improperly, water quality and your health may be at risk. Bacteria, parasites, and viruses contained in pet waste can be an environmental hazard.
