Where do you Place a Debris Boom?
Debris Boom Placement
Where should I place a debris barrier to most effectively control trash? How do I clean the debris up once it has been collected?
Good Morning! Thank you for you inquiry! The position you might want to place your debris boom can vary depending on the type of area and the conditions surrounding the location. In general, one way you could deploy this debris boom would be from the shoreline of your water location. If installed here, debris will wash up naturally along shores, making it much easier to clean up.
Another location you could place this boom is at the entrance of your water area. If placed in this location, debris will be contained before it floats out into the middle of your entire water area. This will give you a smaller location for collecting items and help prevent pollution before it occurs.
Various ways that you might collect debris build-up is through the use of a trash skimmer, removable trash basic, or removable trash net. You could also use a vacuum trailer or aquatic plant harvester.
