Additional Information
Was there any event that could have contributed to the documented debris?
The lake authority has just started putting our line catchers and started encouraging Lake cleanups but on the land and in water. I feel this should improve over time.
What was the most unusual item found?
A cap and also a koozie from a local store that went out of business several years back.
What were the most problematic debris items in your location?
tires and bricks- with the growth they were difficult to recover
