Want to help keep our streams clean?
- Avoid littering—garbage collects in the catch basins and can end up polluting your favorite fishing hole.
- Keep your car maintained—fluids that leak out of your car collect in parking lots can be washed into the catch basins and be carried to the creeks.
- Be mindful when applying fertilizer to your lawn—over fertilizing can cause an excess of algae in our neighborhood ponds.
- Finally, don’t dump anything like motor oil, dirt or waste into the street or into catch basins—remember the water in the catch basins is not filtered before it enters our creeks.
