city of RE 7.1.D. - Page 18 <br /> business-related trash and recycling materials before,during,and after collection. On-land illegal <br /> dumping of trash is the final source category. <br /> Trash is transported to receiving waters through three main pathways: 1) Stormwater <br /> Conveyances; 2) Wind; and, 3) Direct Dumping.Stormwater or urban runoff conveyance systems <br /> (e.g., MS4s) consist of curbs/gutters,and pipes and channels that discharge to urban creeks and the <br /> San Francisco Bay shorelines. Wind can also blow trash directly into creeks or the Bay. Lastly,trash <br /> in receiving waters can also originate from direct dumping into urban creeks and shorelines. <br /> This Long-term Plan and associated trash control measures described in Section 3.0 are focused on <br /> reducing trash from one of the transport pathways illustrated in Figure 3—stormwater <br /> conveyances. Specifically,the Long-term Plan is focused on reducing the impacts of discharges <br /> from MS4s to San Francisco Bay Area receiving waters and the protection of associated beneficial <br /> uses. <br /> Inadequate <br /> Source Pedestrian On-land Litter from <br /> Categories Litter Waste Containe Dumping Vehicles <br /> Management <br /> 1 � � <br /> Transport Stormwater <br /> Pathways Conveyances Wind Direct Dumping <br /> � � 1 <br /> Receiving Urban 1111111Creeks and the San Francisco Bay Estuary <br /> Waters <br /> Figure 3.
