BaltCo Litter Blitz Cleanups
From April through May, organizations, individuals and groups are invited to register to host BaltCo Litter Blitz cleanups. Visit the Litter Blitz interactive hub website to register and put your cleanup on the map. You will have the choice to show your cleanup as private, or provide your contact information for volunteers to join in. The Department of Environmental Protection and Sustainability is offering a small quantity of work gloves and trash bags (while supplies last), a social media outreach toolkit and tips for organizing a community cleanup.
We hope that your group will participate and help keep our neighborhoods and waterways free of litter. If you need further information, please email GreenTeam@baltimorecountymd.gov.
Sewer Project Perry Hall Manor
The Department of Public Works and Transportation is connecting 104 homes in the Perry Hall Manor area in a long-term project to provide sewer service. In September 2022, residents saw topographical and environmental surveyors gathering information for the design phase. The surveyor work has been completed for the moment, though more field work is anticipated. Construction is expected to begin this year and will take from one to one and a half years to complete.
