Illegal dumps are a big problem in our Nature Park. This rural area didn't have a proper waste management plan in decades and people used this karst area characteristics (such as sinkholes, caves, spring areas, forests) as locations for discarding waste. There are a lot of locations that need to be cleaned and by doing that we will help in making this Nature Park a much safer place for wildlife, locals, visitors and cleaner and safer water (springs, creeks, canyons and waterfalls).
