The 28th Annual Delaware Coastal Cleanup was held Sept. 20. Sponsored by the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control, the cleanup spans the First State’s 97-mile eastern coastline and includes river and ocean shorelines as well as wetland and watershed areas. This year, nearly 50 sites statewide were targeted. Individuals and various groups participated in the cleanup.
