A class, calling itself "Walnut Creek S.E.W.E.R." (Saving Erie's Water & Environmental Resources), also worked on projects to educate their community "about cleaner water, including a billboard and brochures, such as Your Lawn & Pesticides: What Goes Around, Comes Around," according to The Carnegie Reporter.
