A sincere “Thank you” goes out to the employees of Cummins Rocky Mount Engine Plant for their Earth Day cleanup! This crew picked up 171 pounds of trash on Johnston Road across from the Cummins facility. We’re grateful for the effort — every piece of trash picked up on roadways means it won’t end up in your waterways! 

Cummins employees who participated in the Earth Day cleanup included Sound Rivers board member Miriam Espinosa (second from left).
