Seattle Public Utilities storm drain stenciling program

Seattle Public Utilities operates a volunteer storm drain stenciling and outreach program that trains volunteers to mark curbside storm drains with messages such as "No Dumping - Drains to Waterway" to remind residents that drains flow directly to local waterways. The program provides stencils, permits, and educational materials to neighborhood groups, schools, and community volunteers. The initiative is administered by Seattle Public Utilities from the Seattle Municipal Tower.
