Ad Hoc Pollution Monitoring & Patrol

Soundkeeper has built its reputation on addressing pollution problems as they arise by investigating, testing, and solving, or referring the problems to the proper authorities. We become aware of problems today through a network of stewards around the Sound, by reports from our pumpout operators, and from citizens like you. Often when citizens are not getting results by going directly to authorities, Soundkeeper can intervene and solve the problem largely because our reputation of only pursuing problems that are significant and real, and our willingness to do what is required to make sure these problems are solved.

If you are awares of a pollution problem that is not being properly addressed, please see our emegency contact list or call Soundkeeper directly at (800) 933-SOUND (email info@soundkeeper.org).
