Glass Beach : California usa
Glass Beach is a beach in MacKerricher State Park near Fort Bragg, California, that is abundant in sea glass created from years of dumping garbage into an area of coastline near the northern part of the town.
In 1906, Fort Bragg residents established an official water dump site behind the Union Lumber Company onto what is now known as "Site 1". Most water fronted communities had water dump sites discarding glass, appliances, and even vehicles. Locals referred to it as "The Dumps."Fires were often lit to reduce the size of the trash pile.
When the original dump site filled in 1943, the site was moved to what is now known as "Site 2", the active dump site from 1943 until 1949.
When this beach filled in 1949, the dump was moved north to what is now known as "Glass Beach", which remained an active dump site until 1967.
