Manage episode 422096684 series 1253835
Flushable wipes aren't actually flushable. And neither are make-up removers and baby wipes. Leland Myers, Executive Director of the Wasatch Front Water Quality Council and Jill Jones, District Manager for Central Davis Sewer District explains how expensive these 'conveniences' can be for homeowners.
