City of Carpinteria Environmental Programs

Our local roadways suffered some damage over the weekend. Caltrans and local agency Public Works crews have been busy trying to keep roadways open. Please obey road closure signs and drive carefully during rain! It is for everyone’s safety. @caltrans_d5

We love dogs, but not their waste. Join us and #closethepooploop. Swipe -> for #poopfacts

Seeing the creeks flowing again has us flooded with happiness, but we have also noticed a lot more #plastic and other #trash on the local beaches. Do you #cleanourbeaches when you’re out on walks? We do! #everypiececounts

Public works staff has been out checking storm drains and cleaning up debris from the rains overnight. One of them was checking a drain outlet and came across a friend. #winterstormmonitoring #roadrunner #creekmontitoring #carpinteriacreeks

Doing outreach work and getting people interested and engaged about the environment is an important part of what we do. When kids send you sweet notes thanking you it’s just an added bonus (but still can make your day). #environmentsleducation #tomolpark #carpinteriasaltmarsh @ Carpinteria, California
