Bateman Island Cleanup
November 1 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm
Removal of the Bateman Island causeway is expected to start in December. This is an Army Corps of Engineers project to restore more natural flow of the Yakima River delta in an effort to improve conditions for salmon. With removal of the causeway, there will no longer be pedestrian access to the island. So ahead of the causeway removal we are partnering with the City of Richland to hold one final cleanup of the island.
We will meet in the lower Wye Park parking lot. Additional parking is available in the upper Wye Park lot and the neighboring lot overlooking Bateman Island. Wear shoes and clothes appropriate for the weather. Bring gloves and trash pickers if you have any.
This event is not suitable for children under 6 years old.
