Adopt-A-Road Program
Do you want to help keep your roadsides clean and attractive?
You can by participating in the Del Norte County Adopt-A-Road, a program that allows for private assistance with litter removal along County maintained roads. Your business or community group can help keep roads litter-free by "adopting" a minimum of 1 mile of County maintained road for a two-year period. Please see the County Adopt-A-Road Program Guide for full details.
