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
