Cleanup Plan
We will designate a team of at least four camp members to a cleanup crew. We are prepared to leave our own campsite completely free from MOOP. We also plan to inspect and clean the road and Playa area across from our camp.
The majority of our camp members are veterans to the Playa, so we have considered waste management in all of our planning. Again this year, a great deal of our food will be prepared in advance and stored so very little trash will accumulate.
The design of our theme camp art has taken the Playa conditions into consideration, especially the wind. We will not have any decorations that can be blown away in the Playa dust storms we have grown to love. We have already decided on what gets burned and what gets taken home. We have plenty of vehicle space for trash and recycling.
The majority of our grey water will be collected in the RVs in our camp. We hope to get our grey water tanks pumped during the week to relieve the burden. We also have three fifty-five gallon water containers and several five-gallon containers that can be filled with grey water to be taken off the Playa. We may experiment with an evaporation system.
A printed version of the Earth Guardian's Cleanup Plan Basics and Leave No Trace Philosophy has been distributed at our planning meetings. We will educate our first-timers to the "don't let it hit the ground" approach to LNT.
