THANK YOU TO OUR 2018 ART PRIZE PARTNERS
There are over 219kms of waste water pipes beneath our City, and when the pipes get blocked the waste water spills onto our streets.
The biggest offender of these overflows is caused by grease, fats and oils, whic are washed down the drain from houses and businesses. There have also been blockages caused by toys, phones and garden tools that have been flushed through the pipes.
You can play your part in preventing overflows by making sure you place food scraps and cooled cooking oils in the bin, and making sure household items are disposed of with your household waste or at the Yarri Road Refuse Facility.
For more info visit the City’s website at www.ckb.wa.gov.au/waste.
