Fishing Line Collection Recycling Project:

In early August RBCA installed six waste monofilament collection containers at the following locations: both boat ramps in the harbor, the culverts just south of the harbor, at Miller's Landing, the Alaska SeaLife Center RV parking lot, and at Spring Creek beach. Our local Boy Scout troop provided the manpower and assembled our specially-designed PVC pipe containers. The Boy Scouts will also install a post and container at the Lowell Point State Park beach. Containers are also planned to be installed at Tim McDonald's Salmon Creek property, at the Lowell Creek water falls, and at the south harbor uplands area. RBCA extends a big thanks to all involved parties, especially the City Parks and Rec. Department, for either assisting or for allowing our containers to be place on their property. This project has been made possible by a grant from the National Parks Foundation through the NPS, Oceans Alaska Science and Learning Center.
