CLEAN WATER

El Matador-7

Malibu has 17 major watersheds and an even more sub-watersheds. All the land area drains to a body of water such as a creek, stream, or the ocean. Runoff, from stormwater or irrigation, flows toward the ocean and picks up pollutants along the way. Find out more by viewing the City's Urban Runoff video in English or Español.

CONSERVATION

one water

The City's One Water Malibu campaign was aimed at getting the entire community actively involved in saving water and making water conservation a permanent lifestyle rather than a temporary response to the historic California drought. The campaign produced four video PSAs, logos, a Sustainable Garden Gallery, and a conservation festival.
