program (Trash O&M Verification Program), via ACCWP, to ensure that devices are inspected and maintained at a level that maintains this designation. The ACCWP Trash <br />O&M Verification Program will be modeled on the current O&M verification program for stormwater treatment controls implemented consistent with the Permit new and <br />redevelopment requirements. <br />2-B Compliance with the Single-Use Bag Ban <br />The Alameda County Waste Management Authority is taking the lead on inspection <br />and enforcement of the Single-Use Bag Ban. ACCWP will coordinate with the Waste <br />Management Authority and report on the results of their inspection and enforcement <br />program. <br /> <br />2-C Implementation of an effective street sweeping program <br />Street sweeping can be very effective in reducing the amount of trash entering the <br />storm drain system. However, its effectiveness is dependent upon the frequency of <br />sweeping and the ability of the sweeper to sweep along the edge of the curb. Parked <br />cars can significantly reduce the effectiveness of a street sweeping program. The City <br />of San Leandro will coordinate with ACCWP to develop and implement an assessment <br />of its street sweeping program. <br /> <br />2-D Commercial Trash Container Management <br />Improper trash container management at commercial facilities can be a significant <br />source of trash to the storm drain system. The City of San Leandro will coordinate with <br />ACCWP to develop and implement an assessment of its commercial trash container <br />management program. <br />2-E Residential Trash Container Management <br />Fugitive trash from residential trash collection can be a significant source of trash to the <br />storm drain system. The City of San Leandro will coordinate with ACCWP to develop <br />and implement an assessment of its residential trash collection program. <br />4.2 BASMAA “Tracking California’s Trash” Project <br />The ACCWP Pilot Assessment Strategy described in the previous section recognizes that <br />outcome-based trash assessment methods needed to assess progress toward trash <br />reduction targets are not well established. In an effort to address these information <br />gaps associated with trash assessment methods, the Bay Area Stormwater <br />Management Agencies Association (BASMAA), in collaboration with ACCWP, the 5 <br />Gyres Institute, San Francisco Estuary Partnership, the City of Los Angeles, and other <br />stormwater programs in the Bay Area, developed the Tracking California’s Trash Project. <br />The Project is funded through a Proposition 84 grant awarded to BASMAA by the State <br />Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) who recognized the need for standardized <br />trash assessment methods that are robust and cost-effective. <br /> <br />359
