Before the establishment of the first depot site in Odanak, the woods were filled with old scrap metal of all kinds from another era and by more recent waste such as camps, abandoned caches or improvised dumps. The waste was brought by the people of Odanak, but also by several neighboring municipalities. In addition to setting up an official deposit site, the Odanak Environment and Land Office team is working to clean up these wooded areas in order to make the area cleaner and more attractive. Since 2014, dozens of sites have been cleaned!
