The Port of San Diego and San Diego Working Waterfront are organizing the 34th annual Operation Clean Sweep on August 24, 2024, from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. Volunteers are invited to help remove trash and debris from San Diego Bay and its surrounding waterways. Last year, nearly 1,000 volunteers collected 10.5 tons of trash, including items like shopping carts, bicycles, and even household appliances. This year, the event is expecting over 1,100 volunteers who can choose cleanup sites around the bay, including locations like Barrio Logan, Coronado, and Seaport Village. After the event, an after-party will be held on Shelter Island, featuring free meals, entertainment, and activities.

The San Diego Working Waterfront, representing 800 local businesses, and the Port of San Diego emphasize the importance of this initiative for the environment.
