Mounties,
Please do not flush anything down the toilets on campus except toilet paper.
The Cresson Sewer Plant notified the college that the plant is experiencing major infiltration to the system of the following items:
- tampons
- sanitary napkins
- flushable wipes (despite the name, they are not meant to be flushed down the toilet)
- condoms
- paper towels
- batteries
- food
- medical sports tape and gauze
- among other things
Sewer plants are only built to properly treat raw sewage.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
