Help Us Spread the Word - Only Rain Down the Drain!
Updated: Apr 21, 2025
Did you know the drains that run along our curbs collect rainwater? This water flows from the street, to storm drains, and then to the nearest stream or lake.
As water moves along the ground, it can pick up pollution - like oil, grease, pet waste, and trash. It's important to make sure that only rain goes down the drain so that waterways don't become polluted.
Volunteers should work on City of Raleigh streets with sidewalks and areas with easy access to storm drains.
Use this interactive map to see what storm drains are available in your neighborhood. Volunteers can add their marked drain location on the map!
