Water Cleanups

Engaging residents with the waterways in their own backyards
Our water-based cleanup programs are aimed at getting Allegheny County residents engaged with the local rivers and streams through cleaning up debris that
enters stormwater drains and accumulates along shorelines.

Tireless Project
Our primary water-based cleanup program is aimed at getting Allegheny County residents engaged with the local rivers and streams through cleaning up debris that accumulates along the shorelines. Our team works with volunteers to remove trash and educates them about issues affecting our waterways.

Working with a variety of partners, including the network of watershed organizations in Allegheny County, we are able to help organize and/or lead creek and stream cleanups. The link below provides more information.

A stewardship program that allows residents to adopt and regularly maintain a nearby grate. The removal of litter and debris reduces flooding and prevents manufactured wast from polluting our waterways.
