Since the summer of 2016, volunteers have been assessing floatable trash that is collected from two trash booms at different points in the Bronx River. The upper boom in Muskrat Cove catches trash coming downstream from Westchester County into the Bronx, and the lower boom in Concrete Plant Park catches everything else before it can pollute the East River and Long Island Sound.
The Bronx River Alliance serves as a coordinated voice for the river and works in harmonious partnership to protect, improve and restore the Bronx River corridor so that it can be a healthy ecological, recreational, educational and economic resource for the communities through which the river flows.
The Alliance works in close partnership with the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation and with over one hundred other partners to reclaim the Bronx River.
