Marine Debris Surveys and Nurdle Patrols with Galveston Bay Foundation
2020-08-05 - 2020-12-31 | TX
Collect valuable data while also cleaning the shoreline! Volunteers are given information and tools from the Galveston Bay Foundation, to then self-deploy at their leisure along an accessible Galveston Bay shoreline of their choice. Data collected is submitted to the Galveston Bay Foundation electronically. We encourage all volunteers to follow Covid-19 health and safety practices when doing these survey and cleanup activities.
Date and time: at your leisure/your choice!
Location: any shoreline along the Galveston Bay body of water that you are familiar with
Contact: To get started, contact Nick Ellis at nellis@galvbay.org and let him know that you are interested in doing a marine debris survey or nurdle patrol.
