Pittsburgh's WTAE Channel 4 has just aired a very nice article on Allegheny CleanWays' rapid response team, the DumpBusters. The crew of volunteers has been cleaning up dumpsites around the City of Pittsburgh for over six months now.

Citizens in the California-Kirkbride neighborhood and Allegheny CleanWays DumpBusters have just completed a cleanup on Morrison Street hilltop that extended down the hillside almost to Brighton Road.  The multi-day cleanup took place on Monday, November 8th, 15th and 22nd 2010.

The steep wooded hillside that starts at the top of Morrison St. and continues down to Brighton Rd., has over the years been a dumping ground for tires (many with rims), seats out of vehicles, windshields, radios and various car/truck parts. (Maybe from a garage?).

We would like to thank Altria (Philip MorrisUSA) for making Allegheny CleanWays recent Tireless project a big success. On Thursday, August 6th Altria District Manager Eric Spivack brought 23 of his co-workers to the new marina/park in Sharpsburg for a day of river bank cleanup. A total of nearly 3 tons of trash and 10 tires were removed from the Allegheny River bank. A great day!
