The Fishing Gear Coalition of Atlantic Canada and the Municipality of the District of St. Mary's have partnered to support responsible disposal of your PVC-coated wire lobster mesh and wire lobster traps, fishing rope and netting.
These materials will be accepted free of charge from October 1st, 2022 to February 28, 2023 with funding from the DFO Ghost Gear Fund and the Municipality of the District of St. Mary's/
The FGCAC will then subsidize the cost of having these materials collected and recycled by our partners, and diverted from Nova Scotia's landfills.
