The Bandalong Litter Trap’s deployment in the Anacostia River Watershed has significantly reduced the amount of floating debris in this vital waterway. This system captures trash and prevents it from traveling downstream, thus protecting the aquatic ecosystem. Local environmental groups have praised the effectiveness of the Bandalong Litter Trap, noting a visible improvement in water quality and aesthetics. Community clean-up events complement the trap’s efforts, fostering a sense of stewardship and responsibility among residents to keep their waterways clean.
Prince George’s County Department of the Environment, Anacostia Riverkeeper, the Town of Mt. Rainier, and the Chesapeake Bay Trust worked together to install trash traps to help remove litter from the Anacostia River Watershed in Maryland. Our trap has helped to remove 170,628 lbs of trash from the watershed.
Trash traps help to improve the overall health of the river, while not harming fish, waterfowl, and other aquatic life.
