For each litter removal volunteer work outing, we anticipate having a crew of three people that will volunteer about two hours per-month engaged in litter removal along the Eastbound stretch of Highway 80 between Ashby Avenue in Berkeley and Central Avenue in El Cerrito. Monthly work will be supervised by a crew leader. Volunteers will enjoy complimentary lunch at a neaby restaurant after each work outing and must attend a Caltrans mandated safety orientation meeting at Internet Securities' office in downtown Oakland, view a highway safety video, and will be provided with hard hat, safety glasses, safety vest, and litter removal device.
Background: During April 2016, Internet Securities was awarded a sponsorship by Caltrans Adopt-A-Highway program to remove litter along the Eastbound portion of Interstate Highway 80 between University Ashby Avenue in Berkeley and the Contra Costa county line near Central Avenue in El Cerrito. This stretch of Interstate Highway 80 corresponds to Eastbound 80 ALA 8 - ALA 6.
Litter Removal Crew Hours of Operation: We anticipate having a crew of three people including a crew supervisor work about two hours per-month engaged in litter removal along this stretch of Highway 80. Monthly work will occur during the fourth week of each month (Wednesday or Thursday).
Litter Removal Crew Worker Profile:The team will consist of unpaid volunteers 18 years and older that care about the environment and keeping bay area highways and adjacent land clean and devoid of litter and other debris. Our Adopt-A-Highway volunteer program may also provide those with an interest in working for Caltrans, Public Works, or Transportation Authorities, some real-world work experience for career development.
Litter Removal Crew Leader: Michael Beardsley (CEO of Internet Securities) will be the crew leader and supervisor and follow all Caltrans safety protocols and training guidelines, will conduct pre-work safety orientation meetings, drive-by and walk-through review of the adoption site with crew members, and distribute safety gear and supplies to crew members.
