Friends of Pomham Rocks Lighthouse will join in Earth Day activities this year by sponsoring a clean up of the shoreline at Lighthouse Cove, from the Veolia water treatment plant to ExxonMobil’s property. Employees and families of Veolia North America will also participate. Earth Day is observed each year to promote environmental awareness and protection of the planet.
Community residents are encouraged to volunteer in this spring cleanup. Families, including children age 10 and older, are welcome to help clear debris from the shoreline. The event will be held on Saturday, May 13 from 9:00 a.m. to noon, rain or shine. Volunteers are asked to park at the Veolia water treatment plant at 1 Crest Avenue, Riverside, off Bullocks Point Avenue. To access the clean-up site, drive down Crest Avenue, past the administration building of the treatment plant. Take the road to your left all the way down and take a right between two treatment tanks. Park on the grass. Work gloves and large paper bags for trash will be provided by the City of East Providence. All you need to bring is a commitment to a clean environment. Water and refreshments will be provided by Veolia plant members.
