Watch for environmental problems! If you see something that concerns you, like open burning, algae blooms, illegal dumping, sewer overflows, improper construction practices, leaking tanks, garbage bins or fats disposal bins, or suspicious pipes discharging into creeks or drainage ditches, let someone know about it. See the City of Columbia's My River Starts Here page for photos showing problems that should be reported. For other jurisdictions, see the contact list for responsible government agencies.
