BRUSH DIVERSION PROGRAM Clean Brush & Yard Waste Service Overview (1st & 3rd Wednesdays)
Brush & Bulky Waste Service Overview (2nd, 4th & 5th Wednesdays)
What is it?
What is it?
Clean Brush is limbs, large branches and other trimmings which are too large for disposable containers. Yard Waste is grass clippings, leaves, tree trimmings, small branches, and/or other organic material suitable for either mulching or composting. Clean Brush and Yard Waste has value as a commodity and is converted to mulch at the Arlington Landfill. The mulch generated is utilized for landscaping, erosion control projects, and/or other beneficial uses. Examples follow:
Bulky Waste is any large discarded items (see examples below) weighing over fifty (50) pounds. Brush is any brush material that will be disposed of in the Landfill. Collection is provided for Grapevine residents. Brush & Bulky Waste has no value as a commodity and is disposed of in the Arlington Landfill. Examples follow: Â’ /^^ZWO\QSa

How do I properly containerize my material for Clean Brush and Yard Waste Collection. Brush piles need no container. However, loose material (e.g. leaves & grass clippings) must be containerized in either a paper bag or a trash can style plastic container clean of any trash or refuse. May I use plastic bags? No. How about compostable plastic bags? No.
May I still dispose of my yard waste with my normal trash on trash days? Yes. It should be containerized and weigh less than 50 lbs.
Additional questions? Please call 817.410.3330.

EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS THINK!
ACT!
The City of Grapevine is prone to a variety of hazards including: severe weather, hazardous materials, transportation accidents, epidemics or pandemics, and pipeline emergencies. As a resident or visitor, it is important to know which hazards we face and be prepared to act accordingly.
Knowing the hazards that may strike your community and preparing a family disaster supply kit is essential for every resident. The third piece of the puzzle is to determine the appropriate actions to take during emergency and disaster events. Please review this section to learn more about what actions should be taken both pre – and post-disaster. Additionally, for those who would like to be more involved in emergency management activities, please review the many organizations which offer volunteer opportunities.
When an emergency is impending, it is vital to know the differences between a watch and a warning. Watches and warnings may be broadcast on TV, NOAA Weather Radio, the internet or other personal warning system. Please read the following explanations so you know what to do should you hear an alert. Warning A warning is issued with a hazardous weather or flood event is occurring, is imminent or has an extremely high probability of occurring. A Warning is used for conditions posing a threat to life or property. What you should do: - Listen to local radio or TV for updates and information on what further actions to take - Take shelter immediately - Activate your personal emergency plan Watch A watch is used when the risk of a hazardous weather or flood event has increased significantly, but the occurrence, location, and/or timing is still uncertain. It is intended to provide enough lead time so that those who need to take action, have enough time to do so. What you should do: - Remain alert for approaching storms - Listen to local radio and TV for weather updates - Be prepared to move to a shelter if necessary
PREPARE! Disaster preparedness begins with the individual and family. Your family members are an important part of your life and when disaster strikes, they are often first on your mind. Being prepared means helping to make every individual, regardless of age, understand the hazards faced, collect adequate supplies to sustain themselves until help arrives (up to 72 hours later or longer), and take action to strengthen the resiliency of your household and your community.
FREEZE SENSORS Overnight lows are often below freezing this time of year. Water on sidewalks, roadways, and parking lots may turn to ice during these times, causing a hazard to pedestrians and vehicles alike. One of the biggest contributors of water to hard surfaces is irrigation overflow. Irrigation should not be conducted overnight or in the morning during this time of year to prevent any run-off from becoming ice and, in turn, a hazard. Frost sensors for irrigation can be picked up at the local hardware store to prevent activation of systems during freezing events. Also, any damaged sprinkler systems should be fixed as soon as possible to prevent excess water from leaving the property. For additional information, please contact Public Works at 817.410.3330.

HOUSEHOLD HAZARDOUS WASTE
MARCH IS SMARTSCAPE MONTH
The City of Grapevine will be hosting its annual Household Hazardous Waste Event on Saturday, March 28 from 8 until 11:30 am. This event is for Grapevine residents ONLY. Proof of residency (driver’s license or utility bill) is required. The event will be hosted at the City’s Municipal Service Center, 501 Shady Brook Drive.
An excellent way to "drought proof" your lawn and landscaping is to consider xeriscaping. Xeriscaping is the use of drought tolerant plants and/or plants that have low water requirements in your landscaping. These plants require little to no watering from irrigation and can survive the harsh conditions found here in North Texas.
Educational information and demonstrations will also be hosted in the City's parking lot (across the street) at 500 Shady Brook Drive.
The North Central Texas Council of Governments has also developed the Texas Smartscape program which promotes the use of both drought tolerant and native plants in landscaping. Native plants are adapted to North Texas conditions, and often have the added benefits of being both pest and disease resistant. Also native plants attract native insects (including butterflies), birds and other animals.
Acceptable items: Any household hazardous waste (paint, oil, herbicides, pesticides, cleaners, fluorescent bulbs, printer, vehicle and household batteries, etc.). Other Acceptable Items include: - Paper Shredding (limit of 5 "office" boxes or 200 lbs) - Styrofoam (clean, white packing foam and packing peanuts) - Cell phones and PDAs - Eye Glasses & Hearing Aids - Mattresses - Appliances - Electronics - Batteries - Metal - Ink Jet/Toner cartridges - Tires - Donation Items (Clothes, Shoes & Reuse Items) - Food Donations* * Canned and dry food goods will be collected for GRACE. Items that will NOT be accepted are: Unknown waste, ammunition/explosives, closed cylinders (i.e., extinguishers, propane tanks), medical waste, pharmaceuticals, radioactive material, commercial or business waste. Grapevine residents unable to attend this event may take their household hazardous waste to the Environmental Collection Center (ECC) located at 6400 Bridge Street in Fort Worth 817.392.3279. The ECC hours are Thursday & Friday 11 am – 7 pm and Saturday 9 am – 3 pm. This service is provided free of charge to Grapevine residents. For additional information, please contact Public Works at 817.410.3330.

POOL DRAINING This is the time of year when many Grapevine pool owners drain their pools in order to refill them with fresh water. Our Environmental Services staff would like to remind residents that pools should be drained to the sanitary sewer system and not to the street where it enters the storm drain system. Pool water discharged to the storm drain system may contain chlorine, have a low pH due to high acid content and could contain high levels of algae (if the pool hasn't been maintained). It is also a potential problem when water that may not drain properly, stands in areas which may provide habitat for disease-carrying mosquitoes. All of these situations can have a detrimental effect on the creeks, streams, ponds and lakes that the storm-drain system discharges to, as well as creating a potential human health hazard. Most residential pools in the city are plumbed to the sanitary sewer, generally through the filter backwash system. This allows the pool pump to drain the pool to the sanitary sewer. A garden hose may also be used to siphon water from the pool into residence's sanitary sewer cleanout. Additionally, pool backwash systems should not be rinsed to the street. Backwash materials should be collected, dried and placed in the trash for disposal. For additional information, please contact the Environmental Services Division at 817.410.3330.
STORM WATER QUALITY Storm Water is the water that is produced by natural precipitation such as snow, sleet, and rain. As this water accumulates it begins to move and migrate through a process known as runoff. Storm Water Runoff moves through our environment picking up items along the way. These items can include plastic bottles, wood, sediment, and petroleum products to name a few. A Watershed is a topographical surface feature on our Planet Earth where rainfall and precipitation drain to a common location. Management of storm water resources is governed by the Clean Water Act under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System. The City of Grapevine’s goal is to work in a cooperative teamwork spirit with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (epa.gov), the North Central Texas Council of Governments, as well as all county and local governments to manage storm water quality concerns as effectively as possible.
STORM DRAIN MARKERS The City has installed Storm Drain Markers on most of the curb storm drain inlets in the City. These markers are a constant reminder that whatever enters the inlet will eventually find its way to our creeks and lakes. Each marker details where the water goes, what watershed the drain is in, and supplies a phone number to report illegal dumping. The only substance that should enter a storm drain is rain water. Remember, the storm drain system discharges directly to our local waterbodies and therefore, never reaches a water treatment plant. Whatever enters our storm drains goes straight to the environment! Please protect our water quality. Report illegal dumping to our storm system by calling 817.410.3334.

MOSQUITOES & THE WEST NILE VIRUS FOUR D’s OF DEFENSE As the weather warms, it is time to think about mosquito season and West Nile Virus prevention. The City of Grapevine, in conjunction with its neighboring cities and Tarrant County, is once again working to prevent the spread of West Nile Virus by promoting public education, continually testing for the virus in mosquitoes, and actively monitoring areas of standing water. Spraying, if any, will only be done when recommended by the Tarrant County Health Department. The summer is our dry season and the elimination of standing water sources that provide mosquito breeding habitat is important in the fight to prevent the spread of West Nile Virus. Swimming pool discharges, pools that are not maintained, over-watered lawns and potted plants as well as pet dishes are just a few of the many sources that provide breeding grounds for mosquitoes. Note: The City of Grapevine has water restrictions in place, due to persistent drought conditions. Proper water conservation efforts at home will reduce mosquito habitat! Please follow water restrictions in place to ease the burden of the drought and reduce the mosquitoborne disease risk in our City. Additionally, be sure to drain your swimming pool to the sewer system and not the creeks and streams.
DUSK/DAWN Mosquitoes are most active during dusk and dawn, so try and stay indoors during this time. Use air conditioning or make sure there are screens on all doors and windows to keep mosquitoes from entering the home.
DRESS Wear long sleeves and pants when outside.
DEET - (N, N-diethyl-m-toluamide) Use insect repellents containing DEET, the most effective active ingredient in repelling mosquitoes and other insects. Follow label instructions and always wear repellent outside.
DRAIN Make sure any object that holds standing water is drained. This includes pet bowls, flower pots, tires, etc. Also, be mindful of overwatering your yard or water leaks around the house. Runoff can collect in areas, including your yard, and create mosquito breeding habitat. Standing water can be treated with larvacide to prevent mosquitoes from maturing into adults.
If you have any questions, observe standing water that is harboring mosquitoes, or would like to obtain larvacide, please contact the Grapevine Municipal Service Center at 817.410.3330.

WATER CONSERVATION Water conservation is an important topic in North Texas due to the drought conditions the area has experienced during the last few years. Water is a vital and finite resource that must be managed to ensure that the region has enough supply for the area's residents, including plants and animals. To that end, the City of Grapevine promotes water conservation in its many forms. Why conserve water? We need it! Conserving water also saves you money (through your water bill)! Conserving water today will help make sure that there is water for tomorrow.

GRAPEVINE GOES GREENER!
REPUBLIC SERVICEâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S MRF
The City of Grapevine continues to increase its efforts to become a Greener-Cleaner Grapevine following the success of a cart recycling program implemented in November 2012. Approximately 11,000 homes received recycle roll carts with lids that are picked up on a weekly basis from the curb. Since the introduction of the cart, there has been an 84 percent increase in recyclables collected.
Capable of processing more than 500 tons of mixed recyclables per day, Republic Services North Texas Recycling Complex is the most advanced facility of its kind in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex. Located in Fort Worth, the state-of-the-art MRF encloses 90,000 square feet of recycling, solid waste transfer, and employee facilities.
Allied Waste/Republic Services continues to expand the list of recyclables by adding pizza boxes, milk & juice cartons. The cartons have a simple, classic design that has been part of daily life for generations. They are light-weight and made mainly made from paper. Additionally, to address the growing problem of grocery bags littering our cities and waterways, Republicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s North Texas Recycling Center has incorporated a film recovery system in their new material recovery facility in Fort Worth giving the City of Grapevine the ability to add grocery bags to the list of acceptable items.
Phase I of the MRF modernization project features an all-new single-stream sorting system and Learning Center. Â&#x2019; >`]QSaaW\U QO^OQWbg ]T !# b]\a ^S` hour with patented in-line disc technology.

SUSTAINABILITY The City of Grapevine Public Works Department is taking steps to improve the energy efficiency of city owned facilities and conserve natural resources. Sustainability is a common theme in Grapevine. With many groups â&#x20AC;&#x153;going greenâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Greener-Cleaner Grapevineâ&#x20AC;? are new mantras. However, growth continues to require more resources. The challenge is growth without increasing our carbon footprint. With new technology, applied energy efficiency and renewable energy projects, Grapevine strives to grow in a manner that is best for our residents, businesses and the environment. The City has implemented multiple measures towards this goal including: Â&#x2019; Ac^^]`b T]` ZSUWaZObW]\ b] W[^ZS[S\b `SUW]\OZ ^cPZWQ b`O\a^]`bObW]\ Â&#x2019; @Sb`]TWba T]` b`OTTWQ aWU\OZa b] :32 POaSR ZS\aSa Â&#x2019; @S^ZOQSR V]ZWROg ZWUVba eWbV :32 V]ZWROg ZWUVba Â&#x2019; @Sb`]TWba T]` SfWabW\U PcWZRW\Ua eWbV STTWQWS\b ZWUVbW\U Â&#x2019; @Sb`]TWba T]` EObS` O\R EOabSeObS` >ZO\b =^S`ObW]\a Â&#x2019; FS`WaQO^W\U ZO\RaQO^S Â&#x2019; @Oe eObS` W``WUObW]\ T]` >O`Ya Â&#x2019; 7``WUObW]\ [OabS` Q]\b`]Z agabS[ Â&#x2019; @SUW]\OZ 1ZSO\ 4ZSSb >`]U`O[ Â&#x2019; >c`QVOaW\U VgP`WR O\R S\S`Ug STTWQWS\b TZSSb dSVWQZSa Oa ]ZRS` vehicles are replaced Â&#x2019; 6D/1 [OW\bS\O\QS bc\S c^a Â&#x2019; 3fbS\RW\U 5`O^SdW\S a VWYS O\R PWYS b`OWZ agabS[ The City continues to implement energy efficient measures aimed at reducing our overall carbon footprint as well as reducing what we spend on energy consumption.

Stormwater & Watershed Quality Management Stormwater is the water that is produced by natural precipitation such as snow, sleet, and rain. As this water accumulates it begins to move and migrate through a process known as runoff. Stormwater Runoff moves through our environment picking up items along the way. These items can include plastic bottles, wood, sediment, and petroluem products, to name a few. A Watershed is a topographical surface feature on our Planet Earth where rainfall and precipitation drain to a common location. See your own Watershed address at Grapevineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Interactive Watershed Map at grapevinetexas.gov.

ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES DIVISION
PRETREATMENT OF WASTEWATER
The Environmental Services Division proactively works to address environmental management concerns. Therefore, the Division commits a portion of its time, energy, and finances to conducting outreach and education within the community.
Pretreatment of wastewater is the â&#x20AC;&#x153;treatmentâ&#x20AC;? of wastewater before (â&#x20AC;&#x153;preâ&#x20AC;?) or prior to it reaching the Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s or Trinity River Authorityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Wastewater Treatment Plant. Every little bit of Pollution Prevention helps, including the "pretreatment" of sewage.
Priorities: Environmental Services prioritizes environmental issues impacting our community for outreach and education. Priorities include: Solid Waste, Recycling, Water Quality (i.e. stormwater, pretreatment, & drinking water), Air Quality, as well as, any mandated requirements. Environmental outreach and education initiatives are performed in response to initiatives, citizen concerns, requests, and/or directives.
If you are a business or residential customer of Grapevine, please take measures to help ensure that the sewage (wastewater) that leaves your property and enters the City sewer has been properly managed, pretreated and if necessary, to ensure it will not harm the sewer collection and treatment system.
Initiatives: Environmental outreach and education initiatives may include, but may not be limited to: -
Going door-to-door in our community to distribute information Presentations to schools, civic clubs and other groups Press releases and articles Newsletters & eNews Utility Bill inserts Participation with community festivals and events Preparing educational handouts, flyers, and brochures
GRAPEFEST GrapeFest, held along Grapevine's Historic Main Street, is the largest outdoor wine tasting festival in the Southwest. Some of GrapeFest's most popular events include: -
The Peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Choice Wine Tasting Classic The largest consumer-judged wine competition in the nation GrapeStomp The Champagne Terrace KidsWorld Palate Pleasers at the Palace GrapeFest Golf Classic & GrapeFest Tennis Classic ItalianCarFest Five stages offering live entertainment The Texas Wine Tribute and much more
What materials can be toxic or harmful to the sewer? Flammable materials might cause the system to explode. Corrosive material, like acid, may eat holes in the system and cause a sewage spill. Solid or viscous material like restaurant grease or other cooking byproducts may cause blockage of the system, resulting in clogs, backups, and spills. The treatment process incorporates microbiology and materials that can interfere with this activity and can cause problems. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Risk It! The regulations and guiding principles for the Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Pretreatment Program can be found in Sections 25-60 through 25-75 of the Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Code of Ordinances. Call 817.410.3330 or visit grapevinetexas.gov for more information.

CLEAN BRUSH DIVERSION PROGRAM BVS 1Wbg PSUO\ bVS 1ZSO\ 0`caV 2WdS`aW]\ ^`]U`O[ W\ ;O`QV ]T " As a reminder, the items are picked up on alternating Wednesdays and the breakdown is listed below. 1st & 3rd Wednesdays: Clean brush & yard waste (place yard waste; i.e. grass clippings & leaves, in large â&#x20AC;&#x153;mulchableâ&#x20AC;? bags or reusable yard waste containers). Large piles of tree limbs & brush need not be bagged or bundled. All clean brush collected on these days will be recycled. 2nd, 4th & 5th Wednesdays: Normal brush & bulk items (which includes large piles of tree limbs and brush as well as bulky items, such as old furniture or appliances). Limbs & brush will not be recycled on these days. For additional information, please call Environmental Services at 817.410.3333.
BAG IT, DONâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;T BLOW IT In the City of Grapevine, it is illegal to sweep, blow, or otherwise distribute leaves and grass clippings to the street. Leaves, grass, tree limbs and other lawn materials prevent the street sweepers from effectively cleaning the streets and in some cases disrupt the storm drain system by blocking storm drain inlets or pipes, and increasing the potential for flooding. Lawn materials can also contribute to sucking the life sustaining air (oxygen) out of our creeks, streams, and lake. The same materials along with fertilizers, in some cases, contribute to fish kills, algae blooms and excess moss in our lake. Therefore, it is best to use a mower to mulch the material and leave it on the lawn. There are many benefits to mulching leaf and lawn litter. Lawn benefits include greener and tougher lawns, disease resistance, less need for fertilizers, less maintenance time, and less need for watering. Additionally, refrain from using excess fertilizers, herbicides and pesticides. Overuse and improper application of fertilizer leads to rain water runoff effectively choking out surface waters in the same manner as do lawn materials; while excess herbicides and pesticides kill aquatic plant and animal life directly. And, if you decide not to leave the clippings and leaves on the lawn (please remember) donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just blow it into the street.

GRAPEVINE RECYCLES DAY
FATS, OILS & GREASE
In association with America Recycles Day, the City of Grapevine and Keep Grapevine Beautiful (KGVB) will host an event to collect Recyclables at the Municipal Service Center, 501 Shady Brook Drive on Saturday, November 14, from 8 am to 11:30 am.
With the holiday season right around the corner, we are reminding everyone who will be cooking how to properly dispose of fats, oils and grease (F.O.G.). These elements are the most common cause of sanitary sewer pipe clogs and backups.
Acceptable Items include: - Paper Shredding (limit of 5 â&#x20AC;&#x153;officeâ&#x20AC;? boxes or 200 lbs) - Styrofoam (clean, white packing foam and packing peanuts) - Cell phones and PDAs - Eye Glasses & Hearing Aids - Appliances - Mattresses - Electronics, Metal, & Batteries - Ink Jet/Toner cartridges - Tires - Donation Items (clothes, shoes & reuse items) - Food & Toy Donations Items that will NOT be accepted are: Household Hazardous Waste (paint, oil, pesticide/herbicides, etc.), NO LIQUIDS of any kind, unknown waste, ammunition/explosives, closed cylinders (i.e., extinguishers, propane tanks), medical waste, radioactive material, commercial or business waste. Adoptions: Pet Adoptions hosted by the Grapevine Animal Control Center. Donations: Food - Canned and dry foods will be accepted for families in need at this event. Goods will be distributed by GRACE. Toys - The City of Grapevine Police Department will accept (new only) unwrapped toys at the event. New toy donations are administered through the Santa Cops program. Education: Also, please visit our education & outreach area across the street from the event. We will also be hosting a variety of recycling experts and vendors. A variety of give-a-ways will be provided by Keep Grapevine Beautiful. For additional information, please contact Public Works at 817.410.3330 or visit grapevinetexas.gov or kgvb.org.
Left over potato peels, cake batter, salad dressings and other chunky or oily ingredients belong in the trash. If washed down the drain or garbage disposal, they cling to your kitchen pipes and can cause a back-up in your sink or an expensive call from the plumber. Please help to prevent blockages that may result in street flooding and water pollution by trashing or recycling all F.O.G. Remember, cooking oil can be recycled to make biodiesel, an alternative fuel source. The Environmental Collection Center, 6400 Bridge St., Fort Worth, accepts used cooking oil year round.
