Purpose
Improperly disposed household hazardous materials can threaten the quality of our drinking water, increase the threat of algae blooms, and threaten the safety of sanitation workers. In addition, hazardous materials left around the house and garage pose an accidental poison risk to children and pets. These events are free to Calumet County residents thanks in part to grant funds, Hickory Meadows Landfill, Calumet County, and the local municipalities.
