With this much trash at River Plantation we hope to
remove close to 20 TONS of debris!  We will also

be removing a dam in the making, which can
cause localized flooding if left unchecked.

WE NEED VOLUNTEERS! Please email or call JessicaGraham@Harpethriver.org @ 615-946-1824 to RSVP so we have enough supplies!

The Harpeth River Watershed Association worked with Metro Public Works and me last fall to clean up Beech Creek in the Boone Trace subdivision. The residents of Boone Trace were also hard hit by the floods in Nashville last May. HRWA, Metro Public Works and other volunteers picked up over 8 tons of flood debris in the Beech Creek area.

I am still overcome with the amount of debris carried by our Harpeth River system after the floods. It is important to remove this trash from our waterways.
