  • Litter & Debris

    1005 Columbia Rd, Boston, MA 02127

    Image submitted with report

    Hello there, I want to file a complaint regarding dangerous debris found on a beach. At 3PM on 7/12/2026, a group of us were hanging out at Carson Beach, on the southern most area of it. A picture of the exact spot from google maps is attached below. When some of us ventured into the ocean, a few of us ended up with cuts in the bottom of our feet right away. Fortunately they were minor, but we did have to provide first-aid to those cuts immediately. We later discovered that the root cause was stepping on glass debris of what looks to be bottles that have been scattered all around the shoreline. I am writing this complaint because we want this issue to be taken care of. We are not sure how long the pieces of glass have been there, but that area should be closed off or have warning signs displayed around that area to give a people a heads up there, while cleaning is undergoing. Please let me know if you need any more details.
