Jonathan Rogers Park Yellow Fish Catch Basin Marking
Staff submitted
Paint the Town Yellow! Flex your artistic skills, make new friends, and help raise awareness about water pollution by marking a catch basin.
,
The storm drain (catch basin) marking program was developed by Fisheries and Oceans Canada in 1991 as a conservation and education project. It involves residents painting yellow fish next to catch basins and handing out educational door hangers in the community to explain the program. Catch basin marking is an easy, fun activity open to everyone. By marking a catch basin, you remind everyone that anything that flows down the catch basins goes into our waterways and can affect wildlife.
,
Seen a Yellow Fish in your neighbourhood? Enter our photo contest by emailing a photo of the marked catch basin and its location to yellowfish@vancouver.ca and you will be entered into a random draw.
