[Mithrandir13]

thanks!!

[elekt]

Not sure I can attend as the date is far out, but if I can I have a pickup that can be loaded down with trash.

Anyone planning to do a little shooting that day as well? (Cant drive all the way from LA and not empty a few mags.)

[sean714]

well ill count you in as pending, but still get you on the list. Im gonna post info on the Victorville dump site where we might be able to drop our trash off there after we are done. And yes we will be shooting after, atleast I know I will be. I need to try out my Mosin Nagant.

But im gonna email or call them in the next day or so and see if they can waive the fees for us because of what we are doing. so ill keep you guys informed as soon as i find out.

Hey everyone, I contacted the BLM Barstow office through email and they replied with first thanking us for the efforts of cleaning up Hodge road. She wanted coordinates of where we will be cleaning up at to make sure it wasent private property, which I knew it was not. She asked what BLM can provide for us to make it easier for us. I told her it would be nice to have somewhere to drop off all the trash after the cleanup. Through emailing back and forth she seems very nice, but BLM doesn't have any more money in budget this quarter. She said to contact her the first part of October to see if she can do it then. So im in the process of emailing the company (Burrtec) that runs the landfill out there. Would like to see if they can donate a dumpster or let us drop of trash with no charge. Ill keep everyone updated on the outcome of this. Thanks all for signing up to keep our spot clean.

[LOSTEVO]

always good when BLM is aware and is perfectly ok with it! hopefully the landfill will help us out

Im in if it goes through. I regularly take my family out to Hodge. It is a shame what people have done to that area.

[sean714]

Yea, it really is a shame that people cant clean up after themselves. And that's why I organized this cleanup, cause once I saw the mess I knew I had to do something about it. From what I see out there is mostly shotgun shells,targets,trash,electronics,etc,.

First! Thanks OP for starting this thread!
I shoot at Hodge Road on a regular basis. What a MESS!
I'm surprised that the BLM has not shut this area down.
Count me in! I'll be there with my pick up and a couple of trash cans. (Rake, shovel & gloves) Also, I will bring my EZ UP tent and a ice chest full of bottled water! Look for the California State Flag!
We can't clean all of it on Sat. but we can start to put a dent in it!
Show your Calgun pride, together we can show that California gun owners are "The Good Guys!"

[sean714]

First of all, thanks to you all for making this happen. Like Spartan301 said, we cant clean all of it Sat, but we can put a big dent in it. Second, im still waiting for a email from Burrtec which is the landfill company to see if they would provide somewhere to dump all the trash we pick up.. Third, I am working on some stuff to give out to Calgunners that show up, maybe like a raffle. Ill keep everyone posted on any updates.

[sean714]

Well, I have an update from Burrtec which runs the landfills out there.
I got a email back from the Division Manager and gave me some really
Useful information. He said Burrtec is overseen by the County, and he can't really do anything on his side but was very supportively is cleaning up Hodge Road, and applauded us for making this happen. He gave me a couple names and a number that I will be calling in the next couple days to see if they will support us with a no charge waste disposal.
