Years before the International Coastal Cleanup became official in 1986, the Pacific Northwest 4 Wheel Drive Association started their own cleanup, Operation Shore Patrol in 1971 along Ocean Shores, Westport and the Long Beach Peninsula beaches. With over 50 years of cleanup experience, the PNW4WDA is the originator of a fall organized cleanup on Washingtonʻs Pacific Coast.
