ACT: According to the U.S. Geological rvey, Over half of the drinking water in merica comes from groundwater, with the ance coming from lakes and rivers.


Environmental stress is increasingly being placed on our resources. As more land is developed, the natural water filtration provided by the soil is continually being diminished. In turn, stormwater runoff – mixed with motor oil, fertilizers, and other contaminants – can pollute both surface and groundwater.


Fortunately, there is a better way. Belgard
