On this page, you may link to each main North Carolina river basin to find the collection totals from the counties in that basin for The 2007 North Carolina Big Sweep. Continue linking to find your own county's individual totals, including a list of interesting debris found. And don't forget to have a look at the trash totals from all 21 years of Big Sweep cleanups, from 1987-2007 (see below the list of river basins on this page).
Are we succeeding in reducing the amount of aquatic debris in our state? Decide for yourself!
Click on your river basin listed below for results of our latest cleanup.
Since no counties lie predominately in the Savannah basin, it is not listed.
