Aloha Parents and Students,
This Public Service Announcement is in conjunction with the Department of Education's MS4 (Small Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System) requirement. We ask that everyone practice safe environmental practices at home to protect our streams and drainage channels that lead to the ocean.
How can you help at home? We stress the following activities:
1. Use commercial car washes that treat or recycle wastewater.
2. Use enough of a cleaning product to get the job done; use low phosphate or phosphate-free detergents if possible.
3. Use plain water when washing your car on a city street or wash your car on a grassy area.
4. Use a spray gun with flow restriction or a bucket and sponge to reduce runoff and save water.

Thank you.
