Get Involved and Help Protect Boulder's Water Supply!
There are many ways you can pitch in to help keep Boulder's water clean.
Storm Drain Marking
Did you know that storm drains lead directly into local waterways? Marking storm drains is a fun way to help keep pollutants from entering our storm drains. By stenciling the message, "Dispose No Waste, Drains to Creek," near storm drains in Boulder, you can help create public awareness and enhance the quality of our local water supply.
StreamTeams
Involve your group, large or small, in an ongoing community water stewardship project. Become a StreamTeam by committing to take care of a segment of your local creek. With just a few actions each year, you will be on your way to maintaining your local waterway.
Creek Cleanups
Do you have a local creek, lake or pond you would like to help keep clean? We have the equipment you'll need to get started on a successful clean up effort. Make a difference, contact Kristin Libberton, Water Education Specialist, at 303-413-7386 or via email at
