Ocean Blue Project

Ocean Blue Project was founded in Newport, Oregon in 2012 by father-and-son team Richard and Fleet Arterbury, tribal members of the Choctaw Nation. Our vision is to restore our nation's oceans and rivers to a healthy and naturally beautiful state. By restoring these precious ecosystems, we can create a world where humans and nature both thrive. We offer educational and technical assistance to local communites and governments, helping them clean beaches and rivers, reduce pollution, and improve biodiversity. Since our founding, we have removed 1.6 million pounds of debris from beaches and waterways and planted 8,900 native shrubs and trees. Together, we can achieve our goal of removing 1 million pounds of plastic debris from waterways by 2025. When our oceans thrive, we thrive.
