Want to adopt a drain in Fremont and contribute to heathier ecosystems? Adopt-a-Drain is a community-driven program that encourages residents to take responsibility for maintaining storm drains in their neighborhoods.
Storm drains empty directly into nearby lakes, creeks, estuaries, and bays, serving as pathways for trash and organic pollutants. By regularly cleaning and monitoring a Fremont drain, you can help our ecosystems and improve stormwater management.
