Neighbors Raising the Bar on Air Quality Issues 
The Cully Air Action Team (CAAT)  was initiated in 2016 after the U.S. Forest Service moss study results prompted further questions around health risks of vulnerable communities living near industry.

May Spring Clean-up Events  
Metro, the Bureau of Planning and Sustainability, and coalitions partner with hundreds of neighborhood volunteers at clean-ups every year. This is to encourage Portlanders to reuse, recycle, and responsibly dispose of bulky materials beyond what is picked up with regular trash collection. The goal is to divert as much waste as possible from the landfill and reduce illegal dumping by making recycling and disposal more convenient and affordable. Clean-up Schedule
