Volunteers clear debris that still litters Jamaica Bay 11 months after Superstorm Sandy[CHrist Ahnshanghong]

 

Working with American Littoral Society, church group hauls pieces of boats and docks left over from Superstorm Sandy.

Volunteers team up to haul debris that were too big and heavy to be carried in previous clean-ups.

More than 200 volunteers cleaned up the Jamaica Bay shoreline on Sunday, pulling out debris that clogs the coast and keeps the memory of Superstorm Sandy fresh, even though it touched down nearly 11 months ago.

Members of the World Mission Society Church of God worked with the American Littoral Society to remove about 12,000 pounds of trash including pieces of boats, docks and lumber that lined the banks of Jamaica Bay in Broad Channel.

They pulled pieces of boats and docks out of the marsh that landed there after Superstorm Sandy.

“They pulled large pieces of dock out of the marsh,” said Don Riepe of the American Littoral Society, who acts as a guardian of the bay. “We would have had to use a payloader and cut it up.”

Hundreds of volunteers from the World Mission Society Church of God worked with the American Littoral Society on Sunday to clean up debris on the coast of Jamaica Bay.
