Babylon Town Councilwoman Jacqueline Gordon recently thanked members of the Long Island Beach Access Group (LIBAG) for their efforts in cleaning up areas of Gilgo Beach as part of the American Littoral Society’s National Coastal Clean-Up event. For the past six years, the Town of Babylon has partnered in this endeavor with LIBAG, who has adopted the beach for many years. As part of the National Coastal Clean-Up, the debris and refuge that is picked up is weighed and sent to the American Littoral Society for documentation. This year, 370 lbs. was removed from Gilgo Beach, as well as its marina and parking lot.
