 | Ensure that no wash water, foodstuffs, grease, litter or other pollutants
from business operations get into the stormwater drains. |
| Avoid cleaning your business premises or cement/paved areas by hosing if
the wastewater goes into the stormwater drain. Instead use a broom to
collect up waste matter and place the sweepings in the bin. |
| Use a minimum amount of detergent for outside cleaning. |
| Make sure that the stormwater drains on or near your premises carry clean rainwater only. Any other liquid or solid is considered a pollutant. |
| Where hazardous materials are used, keep spill clean-up kits in an
accessible place where it is clearly labelled and ready for use. |
| Encourage customers to be aware of their environmental responsibilities including the appropriate disposal of litter. |
