Small business recognised

 

Gosford Council has recognised Peninsula businesses involved in its Small Business Stormwater Education Program.

A number of businesses are involved in a Council program which aims to increase knowledge and understanding about the environmental impact of stormwater pollution.

Small business owners were acknowledged for taking steps towards ensuring their business minimised the impact on our local environment.

Awards presented were: Cleanest Carpark - Deepwater Plaza (Woy Woy), Best Renovation Incorporating Stormwater Devices - G & B Hardware (Umina) and Best Environmental Management Plan - Coastal Ecotours (Koolewong).

"These business leaders in particular are making a difference to the quality of Peninsula waterways and helping create a healthier environment," said Gosford Council's stormwater education project officer Ms Tricia Donnelly.
