In 2005, Hurricane Katrina caused damage to the Gulf of Mexico coastal region, and left huge amounts of trash, known as marine debris. Underwater marine debris poses a hazard to boat traffic. NOAA’s Marine Debris Program tries to identify and remove marine debris. Learn more at http://marinedebris.noaa.gov/.
