Stormwater runoff impacts our rivers, lakes and drinking water. With every rain event, pollutants like fertilizers, soil, pet waste, oil, and leaves and other organic material get washed into our surface waters. These pollutants cause excessive weed and algae growth in our waters, harmful algae blooms, sedimentation and many other problems.

Learn about the environmental toll of runoff and how you can prevent freshwater pollution through Stormwater Week! During the week of August 7th, join us for three organized statewide webinars and visit www.facebook.com/rootpikewin to learn tips and tricks that help prevent water pollution!
