15 Native plants add beauty and value to your landscaping. They also require less fertilizer and fewer pesticides to thrive, so fewer chemicals end up in our lakes and rivers.

16 Rain that falls on rooftops travels from downspouts to driveways and runs off to the street. By aiming your downspout to a landscaped area or using a rain barrel, you keep polluted runoff out of our lakes and rivers.

24 Conduct a baseline survey to assess the existing level of knowledge regarding basic watershed and stormwater concepts such as Do you live in a watershed? When water enters a storm drain, where does it go? What is/are the main causes of water pollution? Surveyor stipends $500 Increase understanding of basic watershed, stormwater, and water pollution concepts by doing a District-wide media campaign and carrying out other programs that promote awareness of the watershed in general and the District in particular.
