Time to Rake the Leaves
January 23, 2021
Indian River Lagoon - IRL communities pay millions to periodically dredge tributaries and residential canals that fill up with muck created by decomposing leaves and yard debris. Tens of millions have been spent to clear decomposing debris from Eau Gallie River, Turkey Creek, Crane Creek and Grand Canal alone. While effective at immediately improving water quality, muck dredging is a retroactive and repetitive band-aid that doesn't cure the cause.

Encourage your community leaders and public works departments to be proactive, and clean every street that drains to the lagoon, BEFORE the spring rains can wash the debris into the water.
