Three new trash booms deployed this morning!
First on a property owned by Garland, supported by Let’s Grow Akron and the Black Hawk Foundation. Decades of trash unmitigated from storm sewers dumped into a wetland, until today!
The next two are on the south side of Summit Lake that was recently cleaned up by a group of volunteers through Ward 9 Councilperson Tina and Julie Ann. These mitigation efforts should help keep this location cleaner as we continue to clean up a century of trash that has made its way into the lake.
We must give thanks to the City of Akron, Ohio & Erie Canalway Coalition and Summit Metro Parks for their support with picking up the trash we collect in all of these and other trash boom locations! Almost 2 Tons so far this year.
