In 2019, Snohomish County Public Works Road Maintenance Division received a $1.5 million grant from the Washington State Department of Ecology to purchase four new high-efficiency (HE) street sweepers to better project water quality of local streams and creeks. The Little Bear Creek watershed is one of the target areas for the use the new HE street sweepers.
In 2021, Public Works Road Maintenance crews began using the HE street sweepers to remove pollutants and debris from county roads before they enter waterways.
