only rain
down the drain!
Did you know... when rain or melting snow
flows over the land, it picks up pollutants, like
trash, dog poop, oil from leaking cars, and carries it into our storm drains - which lead to
the Schuylkill River.
Most of us within the Schuylkill watershed get
our drinking water from the Schuylkill River. By keeping our storm drains clean, we’re helping to keep our drinking water clean.
Your artwork can be
transformed into street art!
*Winning drawings will be digitally enhanced and enlarged to be applied to a storm drain. Your artwork will be a visual reminder that only rain should go down the storm drain!
Every Stream
Matters
requirements
Small upstream waters are connected to larger
downstream waterways, such as rivers, lakes,
bays, and coastal waters. Protecting upstream
waters is important for clean drinking water,
farms, and healthy communities.
