Newsletters

Each quarter the Environmental Department publishes newsletters.  These newsletters are sent to all the box holders in Sand Point, and placed in various businesses.  We hope by sharing some of the information we have with the community we can assist individuals and businesses to identify what behavior changes they can make to live a greener life, and operate a greener business.
