Parks Dept. Issue .......I think that's in the park.

FERP is looking at doing a spring cleanup sometime in the near future to clean this stretch and others along English and Farnam Drives. It's truly a mess! If you're interested in being notified about the cleanups, sign up for the Friends of East Rock Park email list at:

Thanks Justin. I'll be there. I just wasn't sure if there was an official cleanup policy for abandoned, possibly hazardous/toxic bulk waste: you know, something that the city would take care of? (Now if only we could CATCH someone throwing all their *# out along Farnum and English Drives...)

Thanks for reporting this.

Does anyone know what the fine is for dumping toxic waste into a park?

If I were to pick these tires up, does anyone know where they could be properly disposed of?

Are there any companies in New Haven that recycle tires for mulch?

You can just throw them in the woods off of English Drive. (Kidding!) I wonder if a place like Town Fair tire will take them back for proper recycling?

picked up the tires this am, and will bring them to a non-mafia controlled dump, in Fairfield County, for proper disposal. Otherwise this area is due for a good cleaning - there's a lot of litter around.

You rock: thanks! (Did we ever find out if Town Fair Tire will take such tires for recycling?)
