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.

No original source of the oil found, however, OEPA did clean up where it was collecting upstream at a trash dam (other side of Waterloo rd).
What we are seeing here is the residual. Fire department placed the soft booms with our trash booms to collect that. (Some placement adjustment is in order and being handled). Sorry for the late update, flu had knocked me on my can.
RiverKeepers Ohio out on the water today cleaning, maintenance, planning, passing out swag and fun!
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!
Going a little stir crazy so thought I would go out and check booms.
I pose a challenge in the video that you might have fun with Sherry, my wife the author, would do well with this and be able to tell a story just by looking at those tracks of what the animals were doing. It’s not all trash out here.
A side benefit of having trash booms in the waterways and checking them regularly is you occasionally trap more than just trash.
OEPA did visit this boom today. We have not heard what this is exactly. When we know, we will share. Did get about 30 pounds of trash out.
We spent the morning running through the booms with Chris of South Street Ministries and collecting 9 bags of trash and a TV at 143 pounds.
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!
