Dumping at Passaic River in Fairfield

[lennysky]

A few days ago went to check out access points along the Passaic around Twin Bridges. What I saw, made me quite upset. Seemed to be 2 truck loads worth of beer and soda cans plus other garbage dumped there. Don't know how recent this situation is, but I doubdt it was caused by a few carp fishermen casually drinking. I have photos, but I think if I post them, a few of you will be quite upset w it just like I was. I was wondering if the State is responsible for cleanup. There are a few thousand cans that can be redeemed for a nickel each after all.

It's things like that that get our parking lots shut down.

1000's of bottles is an unusual thing to dump. Maybe some kids did it after a massive house party. Usually the trash is appliances and random debris leftover from home-improvement work.

Assuming this was at the lot at the confluence?

The thing that gets me is almost every town has a recycling center. If you are going to take the time, energy and risk to illegally dump stuff, why not just bring it to the recycling center?

Sounds like some high schoolers getting rid of the evidence before mom and dad got home.

Disgusting to say the least.
