Did you know that a failing septic system can require expensive repairs, pose a health risk to your family, and have negative impacts on water quality? Bluegrass Greensource is hosting a free septic system care workshop on Tuesday, November 5^th from 6 – 7 PM at Maywoods Environmental and Educational Laboratory near Crab Orchard, KY.

Participants will learn about local watersheds and water quality, as well as septic system care and how to identify problems. Additionally, residents of the Maywoods area who attend the workshop may be eligible to receive a free pumpout or a cost-share grant for system repairs.

Light refreshments will be provided. Please call (859) 266-1572 or email sandy@bggreensource.org to register!

The workshop is the first of a series of septic system care workshops and water quality outreach events to be held in Boyle, Garrard, and Lincoln Counties over a three-year period. This program is funded in part by a grant from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency under section 319(h) of the Clean Water Act.
