Even with the focus of living greener, areas of the Saint John River are still having problems with illegal dumping.
Tom Benjamin is the Executive Director of the Hammond River Angling Association and tells CHSJ News it's an ongoing problem.
He says while they're not seeing as much litter around, people are still dumping their things on back paths and wherever they can back a truck in.
Benjamin says the big thing is education as people shouldn't be dumping this material to begin with.
