Storm Drain with Soapy Water
Storm drain outfall with soap

CAR OWNERS

  • Wash the car with plain water or wash on the lawn
    This is especially important if you wash your car near a ravine or creek. Detergents harm wildlife and plants.

  • Do not let soap, gasoline, oil, or antifreeze get down the storm drains
    Almost all storm drains on the North Shore empty into local streams.
    Protect streams and fish by keeping harmful substances away.
