Thanks to Dave Stoler, Eric Fitch (thanks Pam for lending us your muscle) and Jerry Harris from Summit Metro Parks! (They help remove the trash we collect from some of our locations).
Bag of trash and passed the grasses on down stream. Ready for the rain! Using that rake you gifted Julie Ann Sweet-Buntin!
This boom will be located right in front of the Summit Metro Parks Nature Center at the end of Ira.
Probably our biggest challenge is getting access to locations that would be perfect for boom placement as so much is on private property. However, that doesn’t stop us from a plan B. We did get a bag of trash out of the booms on Summit Lake this morning following the rain event yesterday. We evaluate…
46 pounds of trash from this spot today. This is a demonstration of how we do this after a rain event.
Because moving water is ever changing, we need to adjust. Dave and I were talking after the move how full of trash this area was last year when we started this. Now, we almost always see fish and wildlife here. Does make us feel good.
Another 51 pounds and a couple bags of trash. If you have any questions on the subject, feel free to message me here.
