Mojave Watershed

Mojave Watershed Welcome to the Mojave River Watershed Group! What is MRWG? What is stormwater pollution? Why is stormwater education so important to High Desert residents?

MRWG is an organization dedicated to educating the High Desert community (the City of Hesperia, the City of Victorville, the Town of Apple Valley and other unincorporated areas of the County of San Bernardino) about stormwater pollution prevention. Stormwater pollution, resulting from urban runoff, is a serious issue and is the single biggest environmental threat to the quality of our rivers, lake

s and other local waterways. It can have a detrimental effect on public health and harm the well-being of local wildlife. Stormwater pollution is unique in the High Desert due to its geographic make-up. Our watershed flows directly to the Mojave aqueduct which is the direct source of our drinking water. Protecting this precious resource for yourself and your family is vital to our High Desert community. The good news? Stormwater pollution is preventable. Through simple measures, we can reduce stormwater pollution and keep our communities clean. It is up to us to preserve the essence of the Mojave Desert. Learn more about us and how you can get involved at www.mojaveriver.org.

We love our furry friends! 🐶 This National Dog Day, show your pup (and our planet) some love by scooping the p**p. Pet waste can wash into storm drains and pollute our waterways. Help protect our watershed!

July is ! 💧 🌿

In the High Desert, how you water matters. As summer vacation plans commence, take a few minutes before you head out to make sure your irrigation system is working efficiently.

Before you go:
💧 Check outdoor faucets and irrigation systems for leaks.
💧 Set irrigation timers to water only when needed.
💧 Look for signs of water waste, such as overspray, runoff or broken sprinkler heads.
