IT'S TIME TO BE A PIPEWATCHER!

Over the past few weeks we’ve trekking through the creek, identifying problem outfalls, and compiling our materials. Now we’re ready for you!

Are you looking to get outside this fall? Learn about your watershed and the impacts we as Hamiltonians are having on it? Looking to make a difference and help improve the creek’s health? Great! You have the makings of a Pipewatcher!

Join us at one or more of FREE workshops taking place this September. Within one hour we’ll have you identifying the combined sewer and storm outfalls within your area, monitoring them to identify problem discharges, and feeling empowered to report concerns to the appropriate channels. To register, please contact Katie at the Environment Hamilton office (905-549-0900).
