Catch the King
Join Wetlands Watch for the world's largest community science event to capture flood data in coastal Virginia! What is Catch the King? Catch the King is an annual event that invites local volunteers to collect data about where tidal flooding occurs during Perigean king tides (highest tides of the year), using a mobile phone app developed by Wetlands Watch called Sea Level Rise. During this season (roughly August-October), water levels are elevated to such a degree that tidal flooding encroaches upon streets and infrastructure in coastal communities. Many of these communities are already facing more intense and frequent flooding issues due to rising sea levels, making the king tide season an especially critical time to collect information that helps us understand what everyday tidal cycles could look like in the future. Why is Catch the King important? Through partnership with the Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS), Catch the King data is being used to help validate flood prediction models. This data serves as a tool useful to local planners, decisionmakers, and communities to learn more about how flooding impacts them currently, and further inform how to plan and adapt for sea level rise conditions of the future.

National Drug Take Back Day
National Drug Take Back Day
Too often, unused prescription drugs find their way into the wrong hands. That's dangerous and often tragic. That's why it's important to clean out your medicine cabinets and turn in unwanted medications - safely and anonymously - for safe disposal. Medication should never be flushed down the toilet or rinsed down the drain. Household drains lead to a wastewater treatment plant that can cleanup dirty water but are not intended to treat and remove medication. When medications are dissolved into wastewater, they may be unintentionally discharged back into our waterways. Dispose of medications safely at home or visit a safe disposal site using the locator below. Find a collection site for safe disposal at https://www.dea.gov/takebackday
