The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency will be awarding Creative Water Solutions for its work with the city of St. Paul and their public pools. With the help of Creative Water Solutions and its Sphagnum moss products, the city of St. Paul dramatically reduced chemical usage at all of their municipal pools. Creative Water Solutions’ Sphagnum moss product has been solely responsible for saving St. Paul over $70,000 by reducing both chemical usage and maintenance/labor hours.
The award will be given at the Minnesota State Fair on August 31, 2011 in the EcoExperience Building.
