The stormwater solution starts with you, and we have a number of things you can do to reduce stormwater impacts in Roseville.

Know where the water flows
To find out where runoff from your house drains click here. Follow the arrows on the storm drain system that connects the storm drain inlet closest to your house to an outfall. Outfalls discharge stormwater from storm drains to a creek or open space.

Adopt a Creek

The Adopt-a-Creek program is an opportunity for your group to participate in creek improvement projects throughout Roseville. It’s a great way for schools, community organizations and companies to affirm their dedication to a clean healthy watershed and the wildlife living there.

Roseville creeks are a valuable natural resource. In addition to providing flood protection and stormwater drainage, they provide vital habitat for wildlife, and enhance our neighborhoods as well as our quality of life.

Our creeks are unique in that they host significant salmon and steelhead spawning grounds. To protect these wild urban spaces, our creeks need on-going care and maintenance. Even though the City works hard to maintain the health of our creeks, we cannot do it alone. We need your help. Adopt a creek and help sustain the health and beauty of our local creeks.

To get involved, contact Adopt-a-Creek Coordinator, Matthew Shadel, (916) 776-1748. You can also sign up for a clean up event through the Dry Creek Conservancy-Valley Foothill here.
