The 6/12/26 edition of MT43 News reported a Broadwater County representative defined an acceptable load of grass clippings as 3 cubic yards or 3 full garbage cans.
A cubic yard has 27 cubic feet x3 = 81 cubic feet. A cubic foot contains 7.48 gallons per cubic foot. 81 x 7.48 = 605 gallons. A large lawn bag holds 45 gallons, x 3 =135 gallons.
NOT QUITE THE SAME.
Another example of government math that does NOT add up, most statements are not this easy to disprove. We do not have to like what we are told, but make it the TRUTH. PLEASE!
