Volunteers now have until March 1 to register with the West
Virginia Department of Environmental Protection to participate in the 2013 Make
It Shine statewide spring cleanup.
The annual event is jointly sponsored by the DEP and the
West Virginia Division of Highways.
Throughout the first two weeks of April, the DEP's Make It
Shine program provides resources, such as cleanup materials, waste hauling and
landfill fees to citizens who volunteer to remove litter from the state's
landscape.
Cleanups must be conducted on public lands. Community
drop-off sites, household garbage collection and cleanups on private property
do not qualify.
Last year, more than 4,800 volunteers participated in the
spring cleanup and removed roughly 220 tons of litter and debris from West
Virginia's public lands and waters.
For a Make It Shine application, contact Travis Cooper at
1-800-322-5530, Travis.L.Cooper@wv.gov or visit dep.wv.gov and click on the REAP
tab under the Land section.
