Waterfront Walking Tour

Waterfront Walking Tour

Are you curious about how the City of Portland and Friends of Casco Bay are working to keep stormwater pollution — all the pesticides, fertilizers, road salts, and other junk that stormwater carries — out of the Bay? Join us on Commercial Street to get up close to where the stormwater meets the sea. Casco Baykeeper Ivy Frignoca and Portland’s Stormwater Program Coordinator Doug Roncarati will guide the Stormwater Stroll, point out features such as stormwater outfalls and combined sewer overflow pipes, and share insights on the process, challenges, and improvements.

SeeClickFix

SeeClickFix

SeeClickFix is a request and work management app which helps to bridge the communication gap between residents and local governments to report non-emergency issues. The digital communications system is a company that was founded and based in New Haven, Connecticut. A few examples would be a pothole in the roadway or a street light that is out.

Another way one can help is to check out their catch basin near their own home and make sure that it is clear. The purpose of the catch basin is to filter out any debris such as leaves, trash, and dirt. You can always report a clogged catch basin to SeeClickFix.

Become a Green Neighbor

Become a Green Neighbor

We challenge you to Pledge to become a Greener Neighbor!

When it rains or snow melts, runoff can carry pollutants such as dog waste, lawn chemicals, soil, and more off of our property and into nearby storm drains. Everyone’s yard runoff combines when our storm drains empty into our local waterways, without being cleaned or treated first. A Greener Neighbor is anyone committed to take action, no matter how big or small, to reduce the amount of pollution that may wash off their property.
