First rain in weeks yesterday and the results on two of the booms on the east side of Summit Lake…
36 pounds of bottles, cans, bags, styrofoam to name a few, all from storm sewers.
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.
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…
Has been a busy week but well worth it! Next project will be deploying a boom on the canal south of the lake…maybe this weekend!
They will be assisting with cleaning out the booms going forward. Today was “training” with Chris so he can train his crews. Dave was here too but had to leave before pictures were taken!
We hit the booms at Summit Lake and picked up a bag from the towpath. He earned his reward and shirt!!!
