Storm drains take what goes down them straight to the river.
No interception, no filtering, no treatment.
So please love your river and don't put anything down these drains. No cigarette butts or other litter. #binthebutt #BagItBinIt #OnlyRainDownTheDrain #yellowfish #chalkstream #healthyrivers

An image of sewer water going to a creek and you can see a red ballon in the distance.

It all floats down here...straight to your local creek. Storm drains don’t lead to treatment plants – they connect directly to our rivers. Whatever goes down the drain ends up in the water we all depend on.

🌧️ Only rain down the drain.

💧🌧️ This week is #StormwaterAwarenessWeek! When it rains, it drains straight into our #lakes, #rivers & #springs. Keep fertilizer, oil & litter out of storm drains to protect #cleanwater. 🌿🐟

Reminder: The ONLY thing that should go down storm drains is RAIN. 🌧️

Last week, our Hazmat Team had to clean up illegally dumped chemicals—this is dangerous for our water, wildlife, and community.

I was once in the art scene. Did it twice but the mudpuppy was my favorite. Presently weathered away to a point you can't recognize the mural.

The goal of this first annual art project is to highlight the partnership between environmental stewardship and the arts in Lynchburg.
