Pollution can come from litter, excess fertilizer use and pet waste left behind. When it rains, all this pollution washes into a storm drain and flows directly to the local creeks.

H2Only means that only rain water should enter the storm drains

What is H2Only?

The H2Only message is a call to action: To ensure that we can continue to use the water in our lakes and streams for drinking, recreation, and other uses, only rain water should enter the storm drains. H2Only was developed by the Barr Milton Watershed Association for the Denver metropolian area. SPLASH (Stormwater Permittees for Local Awareness of Stream Health) is a group of local water professionals that has adopted the H2Only message in an effort to protect and enhance the water quality in South Metro Denver.
