Thank You Summit Metro Parks for the coordination here just north of the Wilbeth trailhead. Dave and I will be out cleaning if you care to cruise by. Going to trying something new in our bag of tricks for this one.
This is one of the MAJOR sources of trash coming into Summit Lake. I was out surveying outfalls from my kayak today. We already have two booms on the lake and with some collaboration, we should be deploying a few more on and around the lake soon. Did pull a bag of trash today.
Dave noted it before I arrived and we watched for a few minutes. We looked upstream for a possible source but with such limited access to the water in this section, we found nothing. We did make a report to the OEPA. Will post with any follow-up. Update: 3 June 4pm, OEPA has contacted me…
6 bags here and 1 from Summit Lake. Wendy, Dave and I are missing Debbie today. She had an injury a week ago and is recovering. She should be back a little in the future. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers!
I blame our conversation on the water!. We cleaned booms, 6 bags here 1 from Summit, did some boom maintenance and discussed new booms to install.
This will help in our efforts at this location! BTW #RiverkeepersOhio will be here Sunday doing some work on the booms and cleaning out trash. #bagoftrashaday
