The Ocean Begins at Your Front Door
|
Even though you live miles away from the Pacific Ocean, you may be polluting it without knowing it.
Before you pour anything into the gutter or down the drain, stop and think! Storm drains go directly into channels and creeks... and through wetlands and bays straight to the ocean.
Anything we use in our home, car and business like motor oil, paint, pesticides, fertilizers and cleaners can wind up in the street. A little water from rain or a garden hose can carry automotive and house hold materials through the storm drain, polluting bays, wetlands and the ocean. Storm drains are there to drain water off the street-not for disposal of hazardous materials. Dumping one quart of motor oil down a storm drain contaminates 250,000 gallons of water. Because storm drains are separate from our sewer system, Storm Water & Urban Runoff Pollution can flow into the ocean without treatment.
These pollutants flow together on a journey from the storm drain to the flood control channel where it can eventually empty into the ocean. This type of pollution is a serious threat to the beaches and ocean of Southern California.
