With the expected weather, we wanted to clear and check the boom on Mud Run
We appreciate the efforts of Akron Services Department in clearing access to the site! Close to 100 pounds today and well over a ton so far at this site has been removed. We will be deploying another boom on Summit Lake this Monday morning at the end of IRA Ave. If anyone is interested in…

Construction site north of Summit Lake lacking mitigation to prevent the soils here from directly polluting the lake we are working so hard to clean up.
OEPA was notified Wednesday and responded yesterday that they would look into it. Rains today and tomorrow…the system works slow. Wouldn’t it be better if folks just did the right thing instead of waiting for someone to tell them?

While I was filming the construction site at Summit Lake this morning, I came across this man picking up trash along the fence line.
Introduced myself and we talked some. He does this because it makes his heart happy is what he shared. Not showing his face out of respect for his privacy.

Some old men meet up for coffee in the morning, some go fishing or take in a walk…
these two old guys meet up on Mud Run to repair blown out booms and clean up a creek. Tomorrow I hear they are going to be down stream of here to get the trash from the blown out booms 😉. Still 6 bags of trash close to 100 pounds.

Wounded! Could be the last boom cleanup for a while!
Just a little dialogue for the first part of the video and then some details on what is happening at this and some other trash booms. 1 bag about 25 pounds.

We hit the booms at Summit Lake and picked up a bag from the towpath. He earned his reward and shirt!!!
