Keep It Clean

The We All Live Downstream program offers simple steps you can take at home to prevent water pollution.

Take a Tour

Signage installed at Griggs, O'Shaughnessy & Hoover Reservoirs invites park visitors to take a self-guided tour along the shoreline & learn about the green infrastructure installed there.

Rain gardens, pourous pavement & more can improve the quality of storm water entering the reservoirs that supply our drinking water.
