Recent Dumping Upstream

La Russell Stream Team #2945 members inspected the site of a former dump, upstream in Lawrence County. To our disappointment there was evidence of recent dumping, including tires, boxes and home remodeling debris. An inventory was taken for clean-up planning and prosecution.




We found multiple cardboard and wooden fruit/vegetable boxes that had been dumped.






Stream Team members identified multiple black trash bags as well as discarded home remodeling debris. This included wooden storm door with glass insert.
