- Rostock: Collection via PortBin in Warnow River conducted by the COP project over two periods: March-October 2024 and March-October 2025.

A total of 73 trips were made with a total of 378 participants. Additionally, both Portbins, Seabins and professional divers were tested to clean Motlawa river.
