Project WASTE Volunteer Event

Project WASTE (Water and Street Trash Elimination) is one of the Bronx River Alliance's Citizen Science stewardship project focused on source-reduction of trash pollution. As of June 2016, there have been two installed trash booms that capture floatable trash in the Bronx River - one maintained by the DEP and the other by Alliance staff and volunteers. Volunteers will be asked to hop into waders and join us in the water to remove the litter, please wear clothing you do not mind getting dirty. Also, please bring an extra pair of socks. All participants must sign a liability waiver in order to participate. This event is ideal for those ages 13 and over.
