Which Drains Get Claimed? Adopt‐a‐Drain Programs in Three US Cities
Adopt‐a‐Drain is a popular and growing program aimed at improving stormwater system performance and engaging the public to participate in water management.
Drain adoption in Houston, Seattle, and Virginia Beach is unrelated to flood risk but strongly correlated with demographic and socioeconomic factors.
Utilities’ public engagement and education programs should include outreach to high‐risk, low‐socioeconomic‐status, and/or demographically diverse neighborhoods.
