Intracoastal Waterway Cleanup Event
SEPTEMBER 18, 2010
WHAT WILL YOU F.I.N.D.?
Palm Coast is hosting an Intracoastal Waterway Cleanup event. Equipped with a $5,000 Florida Inland Navigation District (FIND) grant award, City staff will be asking local volunteers to protect and enjoy nature by removing trash within their developments or along City paths, walkways and waterways. Boaters can work in saltwater canals and Intracoastal waters and walkers can clear the paths and trails alongside the waterway.
Since City's inaugural event in 2008, the 2008 has a great success.
- 2008 : 98; 2009 : 286 Participants (walkers, boaters, kayakers)
- 2008 : 713 lbs.; 2009 : 520 lbs. of recyclable garbage
- 2008 : 1244 lbs.; 2009 : 780 lbs. of generic garbage
- 5.9 miles of Intracoastal Waterway (ICWW) covered
- 7.1 miles of main feeder saltwater canal waterways covered
