With rain coming up, are you making sure you are rain ready? 🌧️

Below is a checklist of ways to prepare for upcoming rainfall:

✅ Start capturing rainwater now for later use! This reduces runoff to the ocean, ​​keeping harmful pollutants from reaching beaches and waterways.
✅ Proactively turn off irrigation to save water and minimize runoff.
✅ Do not open or lift manhole covers in the event of street flooding.
