We all need to do our part to Protect Our Water. Environmentally mindful practices can be implemented at home, at work, and in our community to mālama our moana.
Stormwater Maui will be at the Maui Ocean Center on July 15, 2022, for a fun hands-on activity for keiki (5-12 years) designed to help them learn more about protecting Maui’s marine environment through stormwater awareness and pollution prevention.
Through interactive and educational models depicting a coastal watershed and Maui’s storm drain system, participants will be able to mimic rainfall and stormwater flow to visualize how pollutants can be carried from their various sources, into storm drains, and eventually out to the ocean and other bodies of water, where they can cause significant damage to the island’s ecosystems. Keiki can also gain tips on how to prevent pollution generated from our everyday actions and win fun prizes for participating.
Stormwater Maui is part of the State of Hawaii, Department of Transportation Highways Division – Maui District (HWY-M), which works to manage state highways on Maui in accordance with its commitment to safeguard the environment and protect the health and safety of the community, including residents, employees, and visitors.
