Protecting Watersheds in Santa Clara Valley
Preventing stormwater pollution creates a healthy place to live, work, and play
Volunteer for Litter Cleanups
Join your neighbors and meet new friends at a litter cleanup! Litter cleanups help prevent litter from harming birds, turtles, fish, and other animals, and keep our land and waterways clean. Find events or organize an event near you.
Create Healthy Yards & Gardens
Keep kids and pets safer and prevent pollution by using less-toxic gardening products. Adopt practices that reduce or eliminate the need for pesticides, fertilizers and herbicides.
When you take action to protect our waterways, you also create a healthier and more sustainable place for yourself and your family to live, work, and play.

Launched in 2000, the Watershed Watch Campaign is a public education initiative of the Santa Clara Valley Urban Runoff Pollution Prevention Program (SCVURPPP).
Watershed Watch raises awareness about protecting our watersheds from stormwater pollution. Our website provides free resources to help residents prevent pollution at home and in their communities, which also protects local creeks and the Bay. Watershed Watch focuses on reducing harmful pollutants including pesticides, mercury, heavy metals, and trash, and promoting sustainable practices in our watersheds. We partner with media, public agencies, businesses and community organizations to broaden our reach in the community.
