There was no cleanup. The debris was simply raked into the river. Produce belonging to Burger King and boxes and packing material. Post on Burger King Facebook page... On 12-21-13 a semi tractor trailer of produce turned over on the south bound of i-95 in nassau county they said they cleaned it up...but here is their way of cleaning things up. dumping it into our rivers...so far this mess is scattered from eagle bend to edwards boat ramp and further toward old hump back bridge...this is what still remains under the bridge of i-95 in nassau county....its not including whats all over the river...i guess burger king or someone likes to have it their way.
