Concordia Residents Cover Storm Drains For Safety

A handful of residents of Concordia Lutheran Ministries’ can be seen this time of year walking around the property with wire mesh, tin snips, and zip ties. Concerned about the possibility of ducklings falling into the many storm drains on property, residents began working together to make the storm drain grids safe for the nature around the facility. 

The facility’s caretaker created a map on his computer that shows the locations of every storm drain grate so that those that have been covered can be removed from the list. These trellises remain in place from late April until fall; they are removed so that they are not plowed up and destroyed by snow removal vehicles in winter.
