Used motor oil can contain such contaminants as lead, magnesium, copper, zinc, chromium, arsenic, chlorides, cadmium, and chlorinated compounds. Oil poured down drains or onto the ground can work its way into our ground and surface waters and cause serious pollution.
One gallon of used motor oil can foul a million gallons of drinking water - and most storm drains and creeks lead directly to Clear Lake - with no treatment. It is also illegal to apply used motor oil as a dust control measure on private property.
There are several locations in Lake County where you can recycle your used motor oil. Please do not leave motor oil at a location that is closed for the da
