About the Be Mercury Free Partnership

Be Mercury Free is a collaborative partnership between Regional San and the Sacramento Stormwater Quality Partnership (which includes the County of Sacramento and the Cities of Sacramento, Citrus Heights, Elk Grove, Folsom, Galt and Rancho Cordova). Together, these partners are working to educate Sacramento residents and businesses about the sources and effects of mercury and how to reduce the amount of mercury entering the Sacramento River watershed.

Current efforts primarily target households and the dental community, while previous outreach also targeted schools, universities and hospitals.
