Los Angeles City Councilmember Katy Yaroslavsky says, ‘There is no greater organization doing this work.’
The statewide Coastal Cleanup Day was on Saturday, Sept. 23, and organizations and volunteers across the Southland went to beaches to pick up trash. Heal the Bay hosted a cleanup in San Pedro at Cabrillo Beach. The Los Angeles City Council honored Heal the Bay on Friday, and unanimously approved a resolution establishing Oct. 20 as “Heal the Bay Day in L.A.” in recognition of two important programs established 20 years ago.
Park highlighted the 20th anniversary of the longtime organization’s Bay Aquarium and its Angler Outreach Program. In addition, Park said, “Abandoned and improperly disposed fishing lines pose serious threats to wildlife and they can also damage boats off the Venice Pier. We see the impacts of those practices everyday.”
