Project Clean Water encompasses all 11 of the regional watersheds. The goal is to support the region’s water quality on behalf of healthy ecosystems and communities. For more information: www.projectcleanwater.org. Project Clean Water is a joint, coordinated effort by the: County of San Diego; City of San Diego; City of Carlsbad; City of Chula Vista; City of Coronado; City of Del Mar; City of El Cajon; City of Encinitas; City of Escondido; City of Imperial Beach; City of La Mesa; City of Lemon Grove; City of National City; City of Oceanside; City of Poway; City of San Marcos; City of Santee; City of Solana Beach; City of Vista; Port of San Diego; and the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority.

Stormwater pollution is the most persistent threat to San Diego's coastline and ecosystem. Water that enters storm drains is not treated, which means runoff from homes and properties can carry pollutants such as bacteria, chemicals, auto fluids or trash directly into our waterways, untreated. Project Clean Water was established because we all deserve clean water and we believe that together, we can make it happen.

Project Clean Water inspires people to take everyday actions to help prevent pollution and in doing so creating a healthier ecosystem and protecting the environment. We need everyone’s help to protect water quality and we all play a role in ensuring that our families, communities and future generations have clean water.
