"Students Against Plastic Pollution" allowed to put kiosks at local boat ramps


Franklin county commissioners have agreed to allow the student group “Students Against Plastic Pollution” to place informational kiosks as the major boat ramps in Franklin county.

Group President Brooke Pittman made the request.

She said the kiosks would provide information to visitors and locals on the dangers of littering to the local seafood industry, bay and economy.

The kiosks will be paid for by the “Students Against Plastic Pollution” group – Miss Pittman said they will have to do some fund-raining to pay for them.

The kiosks will also have trash receptacles attached to them to make it easier for people to not litter.

The county commission also agreed to allow county workers with the parks and recreations department to empty the trash cans as needed.
