Abstract: A system for capturing and containing waterborne floating debris in bays, harbors, rivers, and other waterways with current, tidal, or wind action flow. This system utilizes a hinged capture gate attached to any of the commercially produced oil slick containment boom systems along with an anchoring deployment that orients the debris trap perpendicular to current, prevailing wind, and tidal flow in employed waterways. The door frame/door gate invention along with the alignment and anchoring of the boom material will allow floating debris to be captured and held within the boom material for later collection and disposal or recycle. This system allows mandated oil slick boom to serve the extended purpose of collecting floating debris before it enters the open oceans and inland waterways. Thousands of yards of oil slick boom are in place that could be utilized to catch and contain waterborne trash and valuable recyclables in every coastal bay, harbor, and waterway worldwide.
