Welcome to the Mojave River Watershed Group! What is MRWG? What is stormwater pollution? Why is stormwater education so important to High Desert residents?

MRWG is an organization dedicated to educating the High Desert community (the City of Hesperia, the City of Victorville, the Town of Apple Valley and other unincorporated areas of the County of San Bernardino) about stormwater pollution prevention. Stormwater pollution, resulting from urban runoff, is a serious issue and is the single biggest environmental threat to the quality of our rivers, lakes and other local waterways. It can have a detrimental effect on public health and harm the well-being of local wildlife. Stormwater pollution is unique in the High Desert due to its geographic make-up. Our watershed flows directly to the Mojave aqueduct which is the direct source of our drinking water. Protecting this precious resource for yourself and your family is vital to our High Desert community. The good news? Stormwater pollution is preventable. Through simple measures, we can reduce stormwater pollution and keep our communities clean. It is up to us to preserve the essence of the Mojave Desert. Learn more about us and how you can get involved at www.mojaveriver.org.

Ever wonder where rainwater goes after it hits the street? 🌧️
It becomes stormwater – water that can pick up trash, dirt and chemicals along the way, carrying them straight into our Mojave River Watershed. 💧

Want to see how stormwater moves through our cities and what pollutants can end up in our water?

We had an amazing time at Apple Valley Academy for Academic Excellence, training students to use the Enviroscape model so they can teach younger kiddos about our Watershed and how water moves through our community. These student leaders got hands-on experience seeing how pollution affects communities and now they’re ready to share that knowledge with the next generation!

Want to bring the Enviroscape experience to your school or group? Reach out to MRWG and let’s make it happen. Together, we can inspire future watershed stewards!
