What is storm water runoff?
Rain and melted snow that flow off impervious surfaces, such as streets, rooftops, and lawns, to surface waters
It is most often collected and quickly conveyed off-site

You live on waterfront property!
You have waterfront property if there are storm drain inlets in the street.
Storm drains are connected to streams, ponds, and lakes.
Water is not treated before it flows to the stream.

Never dump anything down the storm drain!

Don’t Hose Down Driveways
Sweep or blow clippings and sediment back into the yard.
Washing your driveway pollutes our streams.

Trash is washed into streams through storm drain systems.

Mowing Lawns Never mow in a direction
that blows lawn clippings on the street.
Sweep or blow grass clippings back into the yard.
Grass clippings if they make their way to streams deplete oxygen.

Fertilize Lawns Not Streams
Public Concerns: Make sure you sweep up excess and any spills from driveways, sidewalks or the street.
Only apply what is needed, according to the directions.
Use fertilizers carefully and sparingly!
NEVER wash away spills!

Lawn Care Providers: Go Phosphorus-Free • Go P-free, use only P-free fertilizers
• Let your customers know you are P-free-connection to protecting water quality
• Most soils enough phosphorus, no need to use
• Phosphorus in streams causes algal blooms, oxygen depletion
• Understand the fertilizer label: NPK N=nitrogen, P=phosphorus, K=potassium

P-Free Fertilizers Partnership Opportunity New Marketing
Help prevent algal blooms and growth
of unwanted aquatic vegetation in Ada
Hayden Heritage Park Waters and our
local streams.
Go P-Free
Unless you have newly seeded
lawn, most soils in Iowa provide all
of the phosphorus needed
Understand the fertilizer label:
NPK
N=nitrogen,
P=phosphorus,
K=potassium
Choose a fertilizer that is P-Free
or contains “0” phosphorus
Ask your commercial applicator
to use only P-free fertilizer and
have them sweep any excess
from impervious surfaces such as
driveways and sidewalks
P-free fertilizers are now carried at
several local retailers in Ames.
