THINGS TO KNOW AND DO WHEN IN COMES TO STORM WATER:
Soil Testing - What's in your soil? Understanding the soil test can give you the information you need to make good decisions. Please visit the Stark Soil and Water website for more information.
Rain Barrels - Why buy a rain barrel? A rain barrel captures water from a roof and holds it for later use such as gardens or indoor/outdoor plants. It prevents water from entering into the storm drains, decreasing the risk of flooding.
