In this Wednesday, June 7, 2017 photo, activist Rocky Morrison, left, and volunteer Dalton Abbott, of the "Clean River Project" examine a boom filled with waste collected from a recovery boat on the Merrimack River in Chelmsford, Mass.

There are reports of children finding them and getting poked. (AP Photo/Charles Krupa)
