Arroyo Clean-up
Join us on Saturday, April 29, 2006, for another chance to make a visible, positive impact on the health of our community.
The extremely successful "Arroyo Clean-up," whose past participants included elected officials, neighborhood council members, local businesses, and concerned community members, has had a great impact on our community. Last year, nearly six tons of debris were removed from the Arroyo - along with some sofas and even a kitchen sink!

Universal Waste
Residents of eastern Ventura County looking for alternatives for disposing of household “universal waste” such as batteries, old cell phones or fluorescent light tubes have a number of local options.
As of February 9, all Californians must dispose of items deemed “universal waste” by the California Department of Toxic Substance Control (DTSC) at designated recycling centers or household hazardous waste collection centers. Products like these, which have low levels of hazardous metals such as lead, mercury, cadmium and chromium, can potentially contaminate soil and groundwater, so they cannot be disposed of in the trash.

We're proud of the positive difference we are making in communities across North America through relationships such as the one we enjoy with the Wildlife Habitat Council.
The Wildlife Habitat Council was formed in 1988 when the founders conceived a new and innovative concept of bringing together conservation and business. This was the first cooperative effort between the environmental community and industry.
