DONT CLOG UP THE WORKS :
Your household plumbing system and the Broad Creek PSD wastewater collection system share the same common enemies - grease, oil, congealed foods, coffee grounds and such non-biodegradable items as paper towels, baby diapers, plastics and even cigarette filters and chewing gum. While they may seem to disappear when rinsed down the sink or toilet, they tend to collect, bond and ultimately clog critical junctures in your plumbing system and in our wastewater collection network.

It may take weeks for enough foreign material to accumulate before a toilet or sink begins to back up, or for enough blockages to occur to interrupt the flow of wastewater through our collection system. But the consequences can be far more severe then an inconvenient and unpleasant clean up task.

Please think about the consequences before you put one of these common enemies down your sink or into your toilet. It will safeguard your plumbing and our wastewater collection system.
