Did you know that the storm water drains in our strrets drain directly to local waterways? You can help save our streams from pollution by keeping pollutants, such as used oil from cars, cleaning chemicals and even grass clippings (which often contain fertilizer harmful to marine life), out of the drainage system.
Electronics Recycling Now Law A new electronics recycling law came into effect in 2012. The new law requires that most electronic items be recycled and not included with regular trash. DuPage County has several sites available to drop-off electronics for recycling, including: Glendale Heights Public Services Garage, Hanover Park Public Works Facility and Wheaton Public Works Storage Lot. Visit dupageco.org for times and other locations. For more information on how the Carol Stream Park District is taking action against climate change, go to csparks.org/environment

Did you know that the storm water drains in our strrets drain directly to local waterways? You can help save our streams from pollution by keeping pollutants, such as used oil from cars, cleaning chemicals and even grass clippings (which often contain fertilizer harmful to marine life), out of the drainage system.
Electronics Recycling Now Law A new electronics recycling law came into effect in 2012. The new law requires that most electronic items be recycled and not included with regular trash. DuPage County has several sites available to drop-off electronics for recycling, including: Glendale Heights Public Services Garage, Hanover Park Public Works Facility and Wheaton Public Works Storage Lot. Visit dupageco.org for times and other locations. For more information on how the Carol Stream Park District is taking action against climate change, go to csparks.org/environment
