This bill would require the Department of Sanitation (DSNY) to prepare a report detailing the resources it needs for a dumping enforcement program and the resources that it currently has for litter pick-up and dumping prevention. Such report would include information on what resources DSNY needs to install surveillance cameras in locations where dumping is most prevalent. DSNY will submit the report to the Mayor and Speaker of the City Council and make the information publicly available.
