Fertilizer

Take action

Apply fertilizers only when necessary and at the recommended amount. Do not use fertilizer in the rain or when rain is anticipated. Wait until the grass begins growing in March/April to fertilize, and avoid fertilizing after September/October. See video about keeping our streams and waterways clean.

Washing your Car

Take Action

Take your car to the car wash, lay back and relax. Wash your car on a lawn or over a landscape area to absorb the liquid and limit the runoff from your property.

Illicit Discharge

Take Action

Be the City’s eyes and nose. Notify the City if you see or smell something weird from a storm drain. Call the City’s Illicit Discharge Hotline at (360) 817-1565 or notify the City through CamasConnect 24/7 mobile app.

Why?

When substances such as sewage, food waste, sediment from construction sites, detergents, fertilizers, hazardous waste, dead animal and etc. enters the storm drain, it flows to lakes and rivers. This is called an illicit discharge. Only rainwater should be flowing through a storm drain.

Household Hazardous Waste

Take Action

Dispose of household hazardous waste properly. Do not pour it down the drain! There are three locations within Clark County to disposal of household hazardous waste for free. Please visit the Household Hazardous Waste website for additional hazardous waste information, transfer station locations and hours.

Don't Drip and Drive

Take Action

Don’t drip and drive. Fix that leak!

Why?

Oil and other petroleum products can harm wildlife and habitat. When it rains, stormwater runoff carries petroleum products that drip from our cars to streams, rivers and lakes.

Dog Waste

Take Action

Pick up after your pets and dispose of the waste properly. Make sure to check out our Doody Pledge (see form below). Take the pledge and receive a free bone-shaped waste bag dispenser!

Why?

Dog poop is a major contributor to stormwater pollution. Pet waste contains harmful bacteria and parasites that can cause serious illness in humans and negative impacts on our lakes and rivers.
