East Carbon Trash Clean-Up
I can say with a 100% certainty, East Carbon is one of the
trashiest places in the state. Before my health deteriorated, every summer I
would pick a spot in Carbon or Emery County and clean it up of trash and
debris. The last time that I was able to do this I picked the road to the gun
range at East Carbon. I had no clue at that time as to what I was getting into.
I started at UT124 where the dirt road takes off to the gun range. By the time
I made the first 300 feet, I already had made ten trips to the dump. The
biggest and most item was beer bottles, mostly broken. Usually it only takes a
day to clean up an area, but this road was proving to be a major difficulty. I
had already spent a week and only got about a quarter mile. I started finding
drug needles and decided that it would be best to end this. I then started at
the junction of US6/191 and UT123 and started cleaning along sine the road.
This soon had to stop with threats from COP Sam Leaonard. East Carbon is a
strange sort of community or whatever you may want to call it, but one thing is
for absolutely sure, East Carbon and the surrounding area with its old tv sets,
sofa’s, broken furniture, old mattresses, and just plain junk, is the trashiest
place in all of the State of Utah, period.
