The City and County of Honolulu Storm Water Quality Branch offers storm drain stenciling service projects. You can stencil storm drains in your neighborhood with the clean water reminder, “Dump No Waste, Protect our Waters … For Life.” The stencil also includes the City mascot, the oopu, this goby is recommended for use as a biological indicator of stream water quality.
The goal of this important environmental service project is to increase awareness among residents about the impact of urban runoff, and to stimulate behavioral changes to reduce the pollutants that end up in the storm drain system – and ultimately pollute streams, wetlands and beaches where it can harm people and wildlife.
With more than 20,000 catch basins and other inlets and over 670 miles of storm drains to clean and maintain, we need the help of everyone who lives on Oahu.
