According to The Sun newspaper, Dumpsters will stay at the Imperial Sand Dunes, through May 30th 2009. The Imperial County Board of Supervisors Chairman Wally Leimgruber said $150,000 has been secured to pay for continued trash pickup for the next four months. The BLM had stated that due to the economic crisis there was less money available to pay for the trash collection. The BLM had to make a choice between keeping the emergency services, law enforcement and trash services, so the latter just could not be paid for. Although the the trash services will continue until May we encourage people to pack thier trash. Littering at the Imperial Sand Dunes is illegal, if you are caught then you will be fined. Martin Luther King Holiday weekend is here and serveral dune visitors will be headed to the Imperial Sand Dunes. So play safe, and pack it up. For more info check out
