Living the Green Life - NYSDEC
Long Island Nitrogen Action Plan prioritizes fertilizer management as an initiative since it is the second-leading source of nitrogen entering the Long Island’s surface and ground waters.  Learn About Mercury and How it Effects Our EnvironmentBe aware of mercury related regulations which can affect air emissions, consumer products, and dental amalgam. Be Informed as to Why PFAS are a Concern and Can be Health-relatedSome PFAS do not break down easily and persist for a long time in the environment, especially in water. These chemicals are used in certain consumer products.  DEC provides additional information on initiatives to protect New York’s water.

Did you know that? Each day approximately nine billion gallons of water are withdrawn from the lakes, rivers, streams, estuaries and groundwaters of upstate New York (this excludes Nassau and Suffolk counties). The most significant of all water use categories in New York State is thermoelectric power. This accounts for about 59% of total water withdrawn. Next is public water supply at 31%. About 5% of water used is for industrial purposes. Agricultural water use is less than 1% of state-wide water use. A faucet leaking 30 drops per minute wastes 54 gallons a month. See the USGS Drip Calculator. Make sure dripping and leaking faucets and toilets get fixed. Visit DEC’s website for more tips on how to save water indoors, outdoors, and in the workplace. Be a Friend of the Environment:Air Quality Awareness Week (AQAW)—is May 6-10. The goal of this week is to promote learning and knowledge so we can move forward to take actions in our daily lives to promote air quality. One step which you can take is to follow DEC's burn ban which is in effect from March 16 through May 14. Also remember burning trash is illegal statewide in all cases. Following the burn ban and trash burning law are important steps which can be taken to promote clean air for all. Also note, World Asthma Day is on Tuesday, May 7—as warmer weather approaches—keep an eye out for Air Quality Index Alerts.    Prepare to compost—as International Compost Awareness Week (ICAW) is May 5-11.

Water - NYSDEC
The Bureau provides geotechnical assistance to local, state, federal, and industrial/commercial entities, and has partnered with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) for over 35 years to conduct a cooperative statewide aquifer mapping program. The Bureau also manages DEC's water quality and watershed protection programs for the New York City water supply system, including Federal Safe Drinking Water Act grants, compliance for SPDES permits within the watershed, and technical assistance and training for wastewater treatment facility operators within the watershed. The Bureau works with stakeholders and partners to improve water quality, provides funding for Water Quality Improvement Projects, and conducts outreach and communication activities. The Bureau's responsibilities also include developing and managing a geographic information system (GIS) that provides information and data about New York State's waters.Water Quantity Management SectionWatershed Section AWatershed Section BWatershed Section C • Stormwater: stormwater pollution, stormwater permits for industries, municipalities, and construction

FAQs • Monterey Park, CA • CivicEngage
The City of Monterey Park Water System receives its water supply from one source - local groundwater. The water is produced by 12 City-owned wells with a total capacity of 20 million gallons per day (mgd). The wells reach a depth of up to 1,800 feet and are located in the vicinity of the Rio Hondo, which is outside the city limits and in the Main San Gabriel groundwater basin. Water from our deep wells is of excellent quality and requires little or no treatment. The Monterey Park Water System supplies an average of 10 mgd to its customers.On average, about 65% of the water used each year is supplied from local rainfall; the other 35% is imported from northern California and then percolated into the groundwater aquifers. The water is imported for us by the San Gabriel Valley Municipal Water District, a public agency, and of which the City of Monterey Park is a member.	

4.
How much water does the Monterey Park community use?

Usage ranges from an average low of 7.3 million gallons per day (mgd) in February to an average high of 12 mgd in August. Average use per person is 100-110 gallons per day.	

5.
What is ground water?

Contrary to what a lot of people think, groundwater is not found in underground rivers or lakes. Rather, it is water that fills the cracks and pore spaces in rocks and sediments that lie beneath the surface of the earth, much the way water fills the open spaces and saturates a sponge or towel. 	

6.
Why is keeping our groundwater clean so important?

The San Gabriel Valley is unique in that it is one of the few natural underground reservoirs in the United States. Rain and snowmelt comes down from the San Gabriel Mountains through a series of dams and are then diverted to "spreading basins". Spreading basins are designated areas of land that are very permeable, such as sand and gravel areas. Water can then percolate into the ground. 100% of the water served to residents and businesses in Monterey Park comes from groundwater. Thus, keeping our groundwater resource clean is vitally important to all of us. 	

7.
Where do groundwater toxins come from?
FAQs • Monterey Park, CA • CivicEngage
What are the dos and do nots for groundwater?Do: Purchase only what you need Use products completely before disposing Recycle whatever you can (oil, batteries, etc.) Recycle surplus paintsDo not: Dump products onto the ground (they can contaminate soil and groundwater) Pour products or wastes into the street (they can contaminate oceans, lakes, and groundwater) Put hazardous or toxic products in the trash Pour products down the drainView proper disposal of Household Hazardous Wastes online. 

9.
Is our water fluoridated?

At this time fluoride is not added to the water. There are low levels of fluoride naturally occurring in the water. The range at which they occur is between 0.2 to 0.8 milligrams per liter (mg/L). The optimum fluoride level recommended to reduce dental caries (cavities) is a consistent .8 mg/L does. A bill signed by Governor Wilson in 1997 mandates drinking water fluoridation for larger water utilities, including Monterey Park, and requires the state to provide funding for the installation and operation of fluoridation equipment. The state is currently seeking funding for this program.	

10.
Does the City of Monterey Park own the Garvey Reservoir?

The Garvey Reservoir is not owned by the City of Monterey Park and the water it contains is not stored for city use.

Rain Brings Renewal, But Also Toxins: How Californians Can Keep Their Water Pollutant-Free This Summer | Caltrans
California residents unknowingly contribute to water pollution through their daily activities. The use of toxic chemical pesticides or neglecting vehicular maintenance, can further pollute our water supply. These substances inevitably end up in our waterways, contaminating local lakes, rivers, streams and the ocean. Thankfully, there are simple steps all of us can take to reduce stormwater pollution and help keep our water clean.
Californians can positively impact the environment by taking necessary steps to minimize contributions to water pollution. The “Let’s Change This to That” campaign via CleanWaterCA.com provides a list of tips to help support clean water from summer to winter and all year round. They include:
Pick up after your pet. A common misconception is that pet waste is a natural fertilizer and can be left to decompose in the environment. Not so! Pet waste can contain harmful bacteria such as E. coli and fecal coliform, which can carry diseases that affect wildlife and contaminate waterways when not properly disposed of.
Save water. Reduce water pollution by sweeping your driveway instead of using the hose and, if you can, by washing your car at a facility. The United States Environmental Protection Agency warns that washing cars and driveways at home can cause pollution as metals and fluids are washed off and enter storm drains, collecting more pollutants along the way and ending up in our waterways. If you can, choose car wash facilities that use advanced filtration systems to recycle water used for washing cars.
Go organic. This summer consider using natural pest control methods instead of harmful pesticides. Pesticides made from highly toxic chemicals can have long-lasting effects on the health of our water and the environment. By choosing organic alternatives, like companion planting or using beneficial insects like ladybugs, you can make a difference.
Give your vehicle a tune-up. Vehicle fluids, oils and brake dust are made up of toxic heavy metals that end up on roadways and highways if we don’t provide proper maintenance.
