Litter Committee Minutes
March 15, 2007

  1. Banners: We discussed finalizing wording, locations. Wendi to run wording by board and well scope out locations (Dennis, Colesville, Long Branch?) . Well see whether the Parks Dept. will pay for 2. Jane will follow up with pricing.
  2. Stormwater drainage inlet decals: Jane will tell stewards about the program, perhaps to start in May or June. More investigation is needed to decide on which decal and to set up program.

  4. Trash survey opportunity via Alice Ferguson Foundation/Anacostia Watershed Society: Ed and Wendi discussed option for this in section 9.
