GAINESVILLE - Volunteers with Gainesville-Hall County Adopt-A-Stream took to the water and shoreline Saturday morning, cleaning up about four miles of Flat Creek. <br>
<br>
The Adopt-A-Stream Coordinator, Brian Wiley, says interest in the agency's yearly clean-up effort has been growing. <br>
<br>
"We...get people out and about to be certified for monitoring and also to help in stream cleanup," Wiley said. "So, over the past two years we've had a much better success." <br>
<br>
The volunteers concentrated on a section of Flat Creek around Gainesville's Flat Creek Treatment Plant. <br>
<br>
Wiley says it was part of a statewide river cleanup effort. <br>
<br>
"Rivers Alive is a statewide program in which different counties...beging picking up little right around the same time frame in the month of October." <br>
