🚽From flush to field 🚜

We're sure you've never thought about what happens after you flush, but we're here to tell you that waste doesn't just disappear once you hit that magic flipper.

Your wastewater goes through multiple processes including storage and dewatering and eventually makes it onto the fields of some of our local farmers as a biosolid!

Brainerd Public Utilities is beginning to haul biosolids out of storage to our rural partners.

Recent reports of rental scams in the area.

Red Flags:
- Too good to be true offers
- Pressure to sign a lease quickly and provide payment prior to visiting rental or meeting with the landlord
- Payment requested through wire transfers, crypto, gift cards, cash apps, and overnight cash delivery
- Landlord delays requests to meet in person or show the property.
- Poor or unusual English used in communications.

"Trust your gut." Many victims report feeling that something was "off" about the process.
