The San Diego Bay Watersheds Common Grounds Project was created to incorporate data from water quality monitoring programs and integrate this data on a watershed level using a web-based interactive application to serve as a broad communication, education and decision-making tool; and to further develop the region's capacity to understand and assess processes affecting our water resources.

Project Swell

Project Swell teaches our children about the importance of our recreational waterways and human-water interaction through a well-balanced, comprehensive and hands-on water quality and pollution prevention curricula.

The intent of Project SWELL curricula is to foster a sense of environmental stewardship among our children, the leaders and environmental caretakers of our future. To make this happen, the San Diego City School District, City of San Diego and San Diego Coastkeeper have united to achieve a goal - enhance the existing science curriculum to address pressing environmental issues. We have begun to do this by developing and implementing a water quality and pollution prevention curricula for K-12 classrooms in San Diego City Schools. Project SWELL will ultimately reach approximately 140,000 students in San Diego within the next 2-3 years. If you are interested in learning more about Project SWELL, please contact San Diego Coastkeeper.
