UOver a hundred volunteers, including students from Banning High School, Serra High School and CSUDH, and members of the L.A. Conservation Corp, participated Saturday, September 17, 2011, in the statewide environmental remediation effort dubbed the California Coastal Cleanup. The students teamed up with Heal the Bay and Adopt a Stormdrain Foundation to remove around thirty cubic yards of debris from the Dominguez Channel in Gardena.

Large numbers of styrofoam fast food containers lie strewn about the area. Unlike paper products, styrofoam is not biodegradable and does not decompose into inert materials.
Students of Serra High School, a private Catholic school in Gardena, must complete twenty hours of community service yearly. According to a teacher working alongside the students, the main reason the community takes care of the local environment is because "we love God".
The son of one of the organizers, acting as site captain, rides a motorized bicycle to bring water and snacks to volunteers.
