STORMWATER EDUCATION AND OUTREACH PROGRAM.
Rain barrels are containers used to catch and temporarily store about 55 to 100 gallons of rainwater. Rain barrels are a good awareness tool. They help people think about stormwater runoff in a new way; to see it as a resource to be used.
Use a rain barrel to:
· Create a “conversation starter” to talk about stormwater runoff and water conservation
· Help reduce stormwater runoff from your yard
· Help conserve drinking water by collecting and using another source of water for watering plants
Should you have any questions regarding this information, please contact Aaron Schmidt, Deputy Commissioner, Department of Community Development and Conservation, at: aschmidt@greenburghny.com
