TRICK OR TREAT? What's Lurking in Your Storm Drain? 👀

This Halloween, ghosts and goblins aren't the only things that can haunt Smithsburg's waterways! 👻🌧️

Some common "monsters" found near storm drains include:
🍬 Candy wrappers
🍂 Piles of leaves
🐾 Pet waste
🗑️ Litter and debris

When it rains, these spooky pollutants can be carried through storm drains and into local streams.

Keep the scares on Halloween, not in our waterways! Dispose of trash properly, pick up litter when you see it, and help keep Smithsburg's streams clean and healthy year-round!

When you see a street sweeper around town, it's doing more than making Smithsburg look nice and clean.🚛

Street sweeping helps protect local streams and waterways by removing dirt, leaves, litter, and other debris before rain can wash them into storm drains.

By keeping our streets clean, street sweeping helps:
• Reduce pollution in local waterways
• Remove trash before it reaches streams
• Prevent sediment from washing into creeks
• Keep storm drains flowing properly

Clean streets mean cleaner streams. The next time you spot a street sweeper, remember it's an important part of protecting Smithsburg's water quality and stormwater system!💧

🌷Species Spotlight: New England Aster🌷

As we move further into fall and many summer blooms begin to fade, New England Aster comes to life with vibrant purple flowers that brighten Maryland landscapes late into the season.🍂

Known for its striking purple blooms with bright yellow centers, New England Aster flowers from August until the first frost. Growing 2 to 8 feet tall, this native wildflower can be found in meadows, roadsides, stream corridors, and other sunny areas throughout Maryland. ☀

This native wildflower is more than just a beautiful sign of the season. New England Aster provides critical nectar for bees, butterflies, and other pollinators preparing for winter. It is especially important for monarch butterflies during their fall migration south, offering a valuable late-season food source when many other flowering plants have already faded.🦋

Native plants like New England Aster also play an important role in protecting local waterways by absorbing rainfall, reducing stormwater runoff, improving soil health, and supporting healthy ecosystems.💧

Next time you're out enjoying the colors of autumn, keep an eye out for the bright purple blooms of New England Aster!👀

Check out this article from the Chesapeake Bay Foundation that takes place right here in Beaver Creek!📍

Scientists surveyed fish populations in Beaver Creek to learn more about the health of this important local waterway. They found brown trout, rainbow trout, and many other species that depend on clean, cool water to survive. 🐟

The article highlights how restoration, tree planting, and reducing stormwater runoff can help protect waterways like Beaver Creek for future generations.💧

Take a few minutes to read this interesting story about one of our local streams:👇

Since 2002, CBF has been doing restoration and tree plantings along Beaver Creek, a tributary of the Potomac River. Now it’s time to find out how well its fish are doing as a result.
