🌎Happy Earth Day, Lubbock!🌎
Behind every storm, there's a team working to keep our city safe and clean. Our Stormwater Compliance team manages drainage systems, reduces flooding, and protects our water quality; keeping our pollutants out of our playa lakes and waterways.
When it rains, stormwater can carry grass clippings, fertilizer, trash and debris into our storm drains, untreated. That's why what we do at home matters!
You can help:
- Don't blow your grass clippings into the street
- Use safe fertilizer, use it sparingly and sweep up excess
- Don't litter
- Pick up pet waste
Small actions make the biggest difference! Let's support the team that keeps Lubbock flowing. 💧🌎🌳
