Only rain should go down storm drains!

Water that enters storm drains is not cleaned at a wastewater treatment plant before it flows directly to streams, rivers and lakes.

Some common contaminants in stormwater such as lawn clippings, leaves, pet waste or household chemicals are not typically safe for our waterways.

Please do not dispose of grass clippings or other debris in the storm drainage system as this may also cause blockages increasing the possibility of street flooding.

Additionally, blowing, sweeping, or dumping grass clippings and other pollutants down the storm drain can be a violation of your districts Rate Order and the Federal Clean Water Act. Please be advised, violations such as these may result in

penalties.
