That’s east across Patterson from VSU and north of Brookwood Drive.
It is on One Mile Branch, which flows into Sugar Creek, then the Withlacoochee River, the Suwannee River, to the Gulf of Mexico.
WWALS is discussing with the City further trash traps and ordinance enforcement to stop the trash that washes down these creeks.

You can help by reporting trash or other problems with Valdosta’s Click ‘n’ Fix smartphone app.

And of course nobody is going to be satisfied until there are no more Valdosta sewage spills.

You can help with water quality testing.
