Volunteer: Storm Drain Marking - NarragansettCreate an account if it is your first time here! Did you know that the water from most storm drains flows directly into streams, ponds, and the ocean beyond? That means that anything dumped into those drains - such as chemicals, motor oil, and pet waste - pollutes our local waters. But you can make a difference by participating in our Storm Drain Marking effort! For this project you will glue markers that say "Don't Dump - Drains To Coast" next to storm drains in Narragansett. This is a flexible, ongoing project that may be done by individuals, families or teams. Best for ages 13+; minors under 16 must participate with parent or legal guardian. STEP ONE: Register your interest here! We will email you our tracking spreadsheet where you can claim areas to mark, and give you options for picking up supplies. STEP TWO: Review all the materials so you know what to do! It's simple but there are a few important procedures to follow, such as safety tips and how to record and report which streets you marked. STEP THREE: Pick up supplies and start marking! See a demonstration here. Note that this is a very weather dependent project. Night time temperatures must be above 40 degrees and the streets must be dry. Therefore it is better to plan a flexible, ongoing effort rather than one big project day. STEP FOUR: Report back! You will keep track of how many markers you used, where you placed them, and how much time you spent on the project. STEP FIVE: Return supplies. This is important! Whenever you are done marking, please return extra supplies to Save The Bay. Storm drain markers and glue are costly and we want to be sure we can use every one! Register here and we will plan your project! Program: Save The Bay Habitat Restoration Create an account if it is your first time here!

Volunteer: Clean Up with the Clean Swell App!NOTE: This is an independent activity.
