BEAUTIFYING THE BALCERZAK INHOLDING
After Save Mount Diablo acquired the Balcerzak inholding, the work to clean up the area began.
Our trash removal project team recently worked to disassemble unnecessary fences and remove metal debris from throughout the property.
There is a lot of work left to be done before the Balcerzak inholding is ready to transfer to Mount Diablo State Park. There are multiple structures we need to disassemble and much more debris to remove from this property.
