Surface Water Management

Keeping People Safe and Waters Healthy


Snohomish County provides essential services to safeguard your health and our environment through its stormwater utility, Surface Water Management (SWM). You can see us in your community as we help people fix drainage problems, clean up water pollution and improve stormwater systems. These services are funded by a utility charge paid by people in unincorporated Snohomish County.

Snohomish County residents interested in learning more about the Puget Sound and global marine environment are invited to attend a free community film series. The series began in January and showcases films focusing on Puget Sound salmon recovery, river restoration on the Elwha River, and coral reef protection around the world. Each event features discussions led by film directors and marine experts from around the Northwest. Participants will also receive information on how to monitor changes at local beaches through the MyCoast App. There will be free pizza and popcorn, too!
