DALE CITY, Va. — The Prince William Clean Community Council, a local nonprofit organization in Woodbridge, led volunteers for “Week of Hope,” a volunteer effort to label more than 80 storm drains in Dale City’s Lindendale neighborhood.
Volunteers started during the early morning hours of June 24th and walked each street, labeling every storm drain in their path as part of a national effort to raise awareness about pollution in storm drains.
The 3 X 5 1/4 labels state “no polluting” in English and in Spanish and indicate where water and other debris that often get tossed in the storm drain end up: the Chesapeake Bay.
The goal of these labels is to educate citizens about where our storm drains lead to and why it is so important that people do not dump anything down those drains.
The storm drain labels will serve to educate the general public on where our storm drains in Prince William County lead to and provide some examples of what not to throw down the drains.
