Adopt-A-Highway

• Any interested group of people can volunteer to keep a section of roadway at least two miles long clear of litter with regular cleanups.
• If a new group is forming, the members should meet, choose a coordinator and select the roadways they are interested in adopting.
• Group coordinators are chosen by the group to be the contact person between the county and the organization.

• The volunteer organizations promise to clean the road at least four times a year for two years.
• The Solid Waste Management Division provides safety training notes, bright orange vests and gloves for volunteers to wear.
• It also provides safety signs to be used during the cleanup activities.
• The county puts up a sign designating the roadway as adopted and naming the group that has promised to keep the roadside clean.
• The county provides Worker's Compensation insurance.
• All cleanups must be reported.
