Four months after the Friends of Salter Grove (FoSG) drew the attention of Rep. Joseph McNamara (D-Dist. 19, Warwick) to the area’s causeway, the DEM is surveying in preparation to restore the deteriorating 1960s Army Corps of Engineers artifact, and the adjoining park is enjoying occasional organized cleanups.
Warwick, R.I. — The recently formed Friends of Salter Grove (FoSG) are seeing quick results after meeting with Rep. Joseph McNamara (D-Dist. 19, Warwick) at the site’s causeway last month as the agency seeks funding for a plan to raise the structure, eliminating a high-tide drowning risk for fishermen.
