Adopt-A-Drain Program

UPDATE: Program inactive during COVID-19 outbreak


Thank you for your interest in keeping storm drains in your neighborhood clear. During the COVID-19 outbreak, the adopt-a-drain program is on hold. This means that during this time, we will not be assigning storm drains to new volunteers or groups. Thank you for your patience and willingness to help.

What's the program about?

 
Adopt-A-Drain is a volunteer program that encourages residents to clear the storm drains near their home or work. To participate, volunteers adopt at least four storm drains and help keep them clear during the fall and winter to lessen the chance of flooding. 

Bothell has nearly 8,000 storm drains to maintain. You can help by removing debris that would otherwise clog the drains or pollute our waterways. Sign up today! For more information contact our Surface Water Program Coordinator.
