Concerned about the Trash Build Up with the New Paddle Wheel Trash Interceptor?

Citizens can voice their Concerns by contacting David Scott Director Department of Public Works at 410-396-3500 and Mayor Sheila Dixon at 410-396-3835. We will try and have these Officials come to an Upcoming Meeting of the Canton Community Association to get a more Complete Explanation.

The Previous Trash Interceptor has been replaced by the Department of Public Works without Input from the Baltimore Harbor Watershed Association. The DPW has now installed a Paddle Wheel Trash Interceptor that will Collect Trash behind the Walking Bridge. The Trash will become more Visible because it will have to travel a longer distance from the Harris Creek Outlet on Boston Street.
