If you recently had your car brakes replaced, theres a good chance of helped make Water Quality better and didnt even know it. This is a story touched off by a team that was trying to solve a longstanding mystery. Back in the early 1990s, it was clear San Francisco bay had a copper problem. Parts of the bay couldnt even be fished. The fish were so full of copper that they were not fit for human consumption and they were trying to figure out where the copper was coming from. Larry owns an auto shop in Mountain View. Scientists looked at everything from rain gutters to rat poison until auto mechanics helped connect the dots. We noticed the brake pads had copper in them. The companies that make the break pads keep their formulas secret, but the mechanics noticed copper, and it turned out to be the clue. Every time we brake, it little dust ends up on the roads. That brake dust is full of copper. Rain washes it down storm drains, and then it storms into creeks and out into the bay. Meredith williams is with the state department of toxic substances. Getting the copper out of our water is really important. Its a toxic to aquatic species from the bottom of the food chain and all the way up. Storm Water Treatment agencies, environmental groups and brake companies teamed up to research the problem. Thant led to laws in california and Washington State phasing out copper and other heavy metals from all brake pads by the year 2025. A lot of brake Companies Already taking action. 40 of the brakes on the market already comply with the goals that were set for the year 2025. Larrys auto works have been installing the new pads for more than five years. They cost about the same as the old ones. Theres no copper, nothing glinting back at you. Up to now compliance has been voluntary but early next year california will finalize mandatory requirements. In the meantime you can help speed things up. Certainly wouldnt hurt if more people were aware and more people asked their mechanics for these kind of brakes. Many mechanics may not know about the new low copper brake pads yet, but they are available for most cards. The leaf symbols on the box so what level of heavy metals is in the pads. This one with three dark leaves is best for the environment. Kristen sze, abc7 news. National park visits are free this week and if you are going to yosemite prepared to be wowed.
