Illegal dumping continued . . .
DUMPS from Page 2
Parris, of the Lincoln-Lancaster Clean
Community System. Parris suggested
the Salt Creek dump sites.
Last month 30 people affiliated with
the VFW descended the banks into an
area they nicknamed “Diaper Gulch."
Bonebright said the vets removed
four tons of garbage from a quarter mile
of the stream. The debris included
household trash — cans, bottles, food
wrappers; occasional car parts and a
pile of diapers.
Bonebright, who spent six years in
the Navy said the junk in Salt Creek
brought back memories of the war. He
said streams in Vietnam were also
polluted.
“The reason we got so incensed is
i——
because Vietnam is still an under
developed country . . . and we are the
most high-tech country in the world,
Bonebright said.
Some have blamed the illegal dump
ing problem on the gate fee at the
county landfill, but Bonebright has his
own explanation.
“1 personally blame it on people
being too lazy to drive across town.”
Traver, who spent four years in the
Marine Corps said ‘‘the people who
don’t care are making you and me drink
this stuff.”
The vets met with Parris again and
created Clean Waterways of Lancaster
County, a summer-long project to clean
up the mess in Salt Creek.
The first phase of the clean water
ways project will begin in July, when
local Boy Scout troops will spend a
weekend finding and mapping every
dump site in Salt Creek and its tribu
taries, Bonebright said.
The next phase will be in August
when as many community volunteers as
can be recruited will go to the creek
with shovels, garbage bags, boom trucks
and four-wheel drive trucks to clean
out garbage, he said.
Organizations that have expressed
an interest in helping with the project
include the Boy Scouts, the Girl Scouts,
the Civil Air Patrol, the South Salt
Creek Community Organization, Citi
zens for Environmental Improvement,
the Goodtime Four-Wheelers, the Star
City Four Wheelers, and the Nebraska
land Community Emergency team, he
said.
Bonebright and Traver said they
hope that some fraternities, sororities
or other university organizations will
become involved.
The Clean Community System esti
mated that the first cleanup project
saved the county $2,080. Parris esti
mates that the large-scale project could
save two to three times as much.
Parris said that new, tougher county
laws are being drafted to ensure that
once Salt Creek gets clean, it will stay
clean.

ways of Lancaster County call Rita
