Stormwater Management with the Santa Barbara Creek Division
Sunday, June 23rd, 2013
1:00pm-3:00pm
Free
Water
that flows into our storm drains enters our creeks and oceans
untreated. With this workshop, you have the opportunity to help protect
our beautiful environment and its unique inhabitants by going out with
the City of Santa Barbara's Creek Division and learning about the
importance of storm drain markers and community education campaigns
regarding water pollution. Work side by side with staff from the Creek
Division. You can help them replace old plastic ones with new metal ones
that are more durable and visible. Help them get to their 1,400 storm
drain marker replacement goal!
