Help keep our beaches clean

•	Being a Responsible at the Beach Plan ahead and bring a trash bag with you on your next trip. If you carry it in, carry it out. If you are having fun with your family and you take food or beverages to the beach - please keep your area of the beach clean.

•	Help Eliminate Boating Waste When you go boating, don’t empty your waste into the water.

•	Always Clean up after your Pets. Pet waste contains harmful bacteria and organisms that can spread disease. Pick up pet waste, seal it in a plastic bag, and dispose of it in trash cans. Don't hose waste into storm drains. Help keep your neighborhood and your pet healthy and clean.
