G9. Install and/or maintain trash capture technologies. Trash accumulation along waterways and in existing GSI features are common within the East Berry Street study area. Install storm drain inlet, in-line, and end of pipe trash capture technologies where appropriate.

Maintenance of these interventions are important for the continued functioning of the technologies. G10.

Work with local partners or City departments to launch an educational campaign focused on healthy, clean waterways promoting trash management, pet waste management, and eliminating the use of pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers at residences and in the East Berry study area neighborhoods.
