Media Library
BASWG has developed a media library as part of our education and outreach program, bringing a recognizable face to stormwater pollution. You may have seen the videos at events like the Maine Science Festival or the Children’s Water Festival. Feel free to share!
Why Do We Conduct CCTV Inspections?
See what’s happening under your city! Using a CCTV camera enables us to see what is happening underground.
