You can adopt a storm drain in your neighborhood and help keep pollutants and other materials out of our storm drain systems.
Adopt-a-Drain is a program where residents can adopt a storm drain in their neighborhood and keep it clear of leaves, trash, and other debris to reduce water pollution.

Sign up online to adopt a drain in your neighborhood.
Sweep leaves, trash and other debris off the drain surface year round.
Keep an estimated total of the debris you collect and enter it into your online account so we can gauge the cumulative results of our work.
Let friends and neighbors know about your commitment and, if they ask, tell them about small things they can do at home to prevent water pollution.
