Kyle Forsythe in our Dublin, Ohio
office recently presented a webinar on oil-water separators. If you
are having problems meeting the discharge limits related to oil and
grease in your permit, give Kyle a call at 614.798.9922 to discuss

Along with providing an
alternative means of transportation, the two shower facilities and
five bike racks in The Buick promote a more active lifestyle.
If employees are encouraged to ride a bike to work, it will
decrease automobile use. Automobile use contributes to smoke
and air pollution. Riding a bike, instead of driving to work
will; require no demand for petroleum-based fuels, relieve traffic
congestion, and reduce noise pollution.
