The bottle man snatches up a 1,000

Posted on Posted in Conservation, Officer Report

Larry Ausley seems to enjoy filling his canoe up with trash.

Thanks to Larry, there were 1,000 fewer bottles floating around rivers and streams in 2015. It’s something he has done for the last five years.

On a day that Larry cut two trees out of eddies on the Lower Haw, he topped his eddy-clearing efforts by collecting more bottles on the way to the take out.
