Residents

Whether you live next to a creek or miles from one, you may be polluting it unintentionally, because all land is part of a watershed. A watershed is the land that water flows over or through on its way to a creek, lake, bay or ocean. Everyday activities such as driving to work, gardening, or washing your car affect the quality of water in your watershed. Explore the categories below to find easy ways to help keep our water clean.
