Litter Reporting Survey for Give Your Land a Hand

As part of our countywide effort to Give Your Land a Hand. We are introducing a mobile Litter Reporting Survey to help identify excessive litter areas and dumpsites throughout our county. The data collected will be used to better understand litter items, recyclability and manage future clean-ups. We thank you for your support and participation and hope to see you at one of the clean-up locations.
