On April 17, Keep Rockland Beautiful held town cleanups in Piermont, Nanuet, and Spring Valley, as a part of The Great American Cleanup’s Earth Day celebrations. Piermont annually rallies its residents to get involved with the village’s efforts to reduce the pollution that is detrimental to local bird and fish populations The cleanup was canceled last year due to Covid-19, however, the event returned this year with parallel energy to previous efforts.
With a maxed-out capacity of 50 volunteers and health protocols enforced, participants put on their muck boots and gloves to retrieve what they could find. Keep Rockland Beautiful supplied volunteers with garbage grabbers, recycling bags, and gloves to remove fishing lines, hooks, and microplastics from the waterline. The highway department picked up the bags of litter.
