Description People love their pets, but a by-product of pet ownership is pet waste, which is getting into urban and suburban streams. Snohomish County, in Washington State, used a scientific approach to their pet waste challenge and created a program to help local governments change public knowledge and behaviors to help keep pet waste out of local streams.
