Storm water credits application deadline is March 1

Gwinnett County has extended the deadline to apply for certain 2011 storm water credits to March 1.

Credits that lower storm water fees are available to Gwinnett property owners who take steps to limit the amount of storm water that leaves their property or clean pollutants from storm water runoff. Owners can receive credit for installing automated sprinkler sensors, septic tank maintenance, fencing livestock out of streams and other activities.
