The goal of this program is threefold:
The Adopt-A-Bin program demonstrates successful best management practices to increase non-point source pollution awareness within the Illinois River and Beaver Lake Watersheds.
This project will increase the number of monofilament recycling bins placed strategically in high density fishing areas within Northwest Arkansas. With the help of community partners and volunteers, this program will help prevent fishing line from getting into highly valued bodies of water. Fishing line is collected, weighed, and sent to Berkley Recycling to be turned into something new!
Plastic fishing line that ends up in the environment poses a serious threat to wildlife and boat props. Wildlife can become entangled in the line causing malnutrition, loss of limbs and death. Aquatic trash also reduces the aesthetic and recreational values of creeks, lakes and rivers.
What it means to adopt a bin:
