Stormwater Adopt-A-Drain Program

Adopt a drain

Help prevent flooding and protect Shoreline water quality

Leaves, pine needles, trash, and snow accumulate on top of storm drains, blocking rain water from entering, and sometimes causing large puddles to form in our neighborhoods.

City crews sweep streets to keep drains clear, but we could use your help!

During the months of October through March, residents can volunteer to “adopt” a storm drain or multiple drains, and remove leaves and other debris after storm events.

It’s also a great way for students to fulfill volunteer requirements.

By joining the Adopt-A-Drain Program you help:

• Prevent localized flooding in your neighborhood.
• Protect fish and other wildlife by keeping pollutants from entering streams, lakes, and Puget Sound.

To learn more about the program, or to sign-up, visit the website or call Surface Water Utility and Environmental Services at 206-801-2450.
