DrainWatch: Take Back Your Waterways L.A.!
r
r Water Quality Monitoring
r LA Waterkeeper’s DrainWatch program gives volunteers the opportunity to survey and track the pollution that spills into our waterways, flows to our beaches, kills aquatic life, and threatens public health. All DrainWatch volunteers get hands-on field and/or lab experience monitoring and testing the water quality at local creeks and beaches. The data gathered helps identify pollution sources and water quality management needs, and drives enforcement of environmental regulations and policies that help to protect L.A.’s waterways into the future! Volunteers will also learn firsthand the impacts of urban runoff, and help to educate others.
r DrainWatch provides a unique way for concerned citizens, students, and adventuresome environmentalists to get involved (15 years and up). LA Waterkeeper provides all of the necessary training and tools- great for your resume, CV, or to build community connections!
