There are over 72,000 stormwater inlets on Philadelphia streets, but many people still use them as trash cans. Litter, pet waste, chemicals and other debris can go directly into our waterways from these inlets.
Philadelphia Water lists current places where markers currently exist, or you can organize your own marking event.
You can volunteer to place storm drain markers in areas that need them. Markers use the watershed name and aquatic wildlife to connect people to our waterways.
Simply fill out the form on Philadelphia Water’s website and you’ll receive the kits.
