SUMMARY:Marine Debris Clean Up at Morris Landing
DESCRIPTION:Join us at Morris Landing Clean Water Preserve for a hands-on marine debris cleanup to protect our coastal waters! This event will coincide with the Southeast district’s Lost Fishing Gear Recovery Program\, offering a great opportunity to not only remove debris from the shoreline but also learn about efforts to recover lost crab pots and other fishing gear that can harm wildlife\, damage habitat\, and create hazards for boaters. \n\n\n\nEach year\, the North Carolina Coastal Federation partners with N.C. Marine Patrol and commercial watermen and women to remove lost fishing gear from coastal waters during the annual blue crab harvest closure. In early 2025\, crews collected 2\,136 crab pots across the northeast\, central\, and southeast coasts—helping keep our waterways safer and healthier. \n\n\n\nNo special skills are needed—just bring your enthusiasm! Please dress for the weather in clothes you don’t mind getting dirty\, wear closed-toe shoes\, and bring a reusable water bottle\, hat\, and sunglasses. We’ll provide gloves\, boots\, trash pickers\, and trash bags\, along with basic instruction at the start. \n\n\n\nParking\, restrooms\, and refreshments will be available on-site.Support for this cleanup is provided by the NC Commercial Fishing License Resource Fund and NOAA Marine Debris. \n\n\n\n\nRegister to Join!\n\n\n\n\n\nPhoto by: Julian Coley\n\n\n\nPhoto by: Julian Coley\n\n\n\nPhoto by: Julian Coley
