Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of the United Nations Environment Program Caribbean Regional Coordinating
Unit (CAR/RCU) and the Caribbean Sub-Regional Office, Peace Corps and the US
Environmental Protection Agency, we would like to thank you all for meeting with us to introduce
the new Trash Free Waters Initiative and to share with us your efforts to address solid waste
and marine litter in Jamaica. As you know, the former Minister of Foreign Affairs Arnold
Nicholson, gave his commitment to Trash Free Waters at the Our Ocean Conference in Chile in
2015. We know there are many efforts already underway to address this issue and we welcome
your participation and enthusiasm in joining this initiative and we hope it can serve a useful
purpose in helping coordinate and strengthen stakeholder efforts while bringing additional
resources to the table.
During our meetings in June, we listened to many stakeholders involved in addressing
marine litter through improving solid waste management, and conservation and outreach, and
learned a great deal about your experiences in Jamaica. We appreciated learning about
ongoing and proposed activities, as well as challenges and opportunities that exist.
We propose to officially launch Trash Free Waters on Thursday, August 18, during a
kick-off ceremony that will publically confirm Jamaica's commitment to this joint effort. High level
officials from NEPA, the National Solid Waste Management Authority (NSWMA), Ministry of
Economic Growth and Job Creation, and all of your respective organizations will be invited to
lend their support to Trash Free Waters Jamaica and help in introducing it to the public as an
initiative that will help reduce and prevent marine litter in Jamaica. It will also help profile
ongoing and new commitments the Government of Jamaica is taking to address this issue.
In advance of the launch of Trash Free Waters Jamaica, we would like to suggest
announcing the formation of a Trash Free Waters Steering Committee that would drive the
efforts under this initiative. Initially, we would propose that two national agencies/organizations
co-chair this committee based on existing mandate and related activities. If your organization is
interested in serving in this role, please let us know.
UNEA@

Following the official launch this August, our Partnership will host a public participation
workshop on marine litter involving key stakeholders from government and non-government
sectors, including your organizations. The workshop will help prioritize needs and identify pilot
projects that will address marine litter in Jamaica at the local community level.
We look forward to launching Trash Free Waters Jamaica and helping you to achieve
the marine litter goals that keep Jamaica beautiful.
Sincerely,
AMEP Programme Officer

Protection Agency's (EPA)
National Estuary Program
(NEP). The SJBE has the
distinction of being NEP's
sole estuary located
outside the continental
US and is also the only
tropical estuary. An
estuary is a body of water
where the river meets the
sea.
The SJBE watershed
includes eight
municipalities within the
San Juan metropolitan
area. Per the 2010 US Census, this watershed is home to 2.48 million people; more than half of
Puerto Rico's population of reside mainly in the San Juan Metropolitan area. In October 2000,
the Governor of PR and EPA Administrator Carol Browner approved the Comprehensive
Conservation and Management Plan (CCMP) for the SJBE. The CCMP contains actions to
address water quality and living resource challenges and priorities of a given NEP. Each NEP
develops and implements a long-term CCMP based on local priorities to guide the NEP efforts.
Every year the San Juan Bay Estuary Program (SJBEP) receives EPA funding from the Clean
Water Act Section 320 to implement activities that align with the CCMP.
During summer 2014, the SJBEP integrated EPA's Trash Free Water (TFW) initiative into their
overall implementation activities to prevent and reduce the amount of trash and litter entering
watersheds and the marine environment. On September 9, 2014, the SJBEP coordinated a
multi-sectorial meeting with participation from EPA, the United Nations Environment Program-
North America (UNEP), the PR Recycling Partnership, as well as the private sector through the
PR Chamber of Commerce, PR government agencies, and other interested non-governmental
organizations (NGOs) to assess the aquatic trash problem in the area (including priority needs
and barriers), and actions to tackle this problem. As a result of this stakeholder meeting, the
SJBEP took the lead to draft the TFW PR Strategy and Projects, a document that was finalized in
August 2016 1
An Overview of the San Juan Bay National Estuary Program's
Trash Free Waters Activities
Background
The San Juan Bay Estuary (SJBE) is located on the north end of
Puerto Rico (PR) and flows into the Atlantic Ocean. PR is a
Caribbean island under US jurisdiction. The SJBE was
designated an estuary of national importance in 1993 and is
one of 28 estuaries in the US comprising the Environmental

SJBEP TFW (cia)
December 2014 and identified actions and projects that could prevent or even eliminate the
volume of aquatic trash and litter entering the watershed and the marine environment.
In January 2015, the SJBEP began implementation of the TFW through projects undertaken
throughout the watershed. The SJBEP Executive Director, Dr. Javier E. Laureano, is also co-chair
the PR Recycling Partnership's (PRRP) Trash Free Waters Committee.
SJBEP TFW Activities
In October 2014, the SJBEP hired a
TFW coordinator to recruit
volunteers, plan, organize, and
implement TFW-related activities.
From that point, SJBEP has
championed some projects identified
in the TFW PR Strategy, as well as
developed and implemented
additional key projects to support
TFW activities:
• public service campaign in the
mass media,
• educational posters for
schools and businesses,
• stormwater pollution prevention pilot project in the Condado Lagoon,
• TFW educational exhibit and video,
• workshops and multi-sectorial meetings,
• cigarette butt and plastic bag litter prevention project in Old San Juan city,
• a citizen guide to improve the water quality of the San Juan Bay Estuary,
• creation of an arts and design center to reuse materials,
• coastal and watershed-based cleanups and inventories, and
• study and strategy to decrease microplastics in the watershed.
Corporate partners have been an
important part in the
implementation of the SJBEP TFW
activities. Banana Boat,
MillerCoors, Walmart, and Dasani
have all partnered and funded
targeted cleanups within the SJBE
watershed. Not only do these
cleanups provide stakeholders and
volunteers with an experience that
galvanizes the need for the TFW

SJBEP TFW (eia)
initiative in the SJBE watershed, it also allows for the data collection of the trash and litter
picked up and disposed of.
On April 29, 2015, the SJBEP partnered with the San Juan International Airport to launch a
recycling program with a goal to recover 500 tons of recyclable material of the 1,500 tons of
total waste produced each month. The SJBEP also coordinated with the airport to develop and
display an educational exhibit showcasing the TFW message at various locations throughout the
airport.
Leveraging and Funding SJBEP TFW Activities
During the first year that SJBEP initiated and implemented TFW activities a $35,000 budget was
provided entirely by EPA's CWA Section 320 program. Of this, 70% of the budget supported the
newly appointed TFW coordinator's salary. In addition to the TFW coordinator, the SJBEP hired
and funded the stipend for an AmeriCorps VISTA volunteer in FY 16. This additional hire will
allow for continued TFW coordination in conjunction with the SJBEP staff, partners, and
volunteers.
An additional funding and leverage opportunity was provided by the Corporation for the
National Community Services (CNCS) to support additional AmeriCorps VISTA volunteers.
Because the majority of the SJBE watershed is considered an environmental justice community,
the SJBEP is eligible to participate in the AmeriCorps VISTA program. Under this program, each
AmeriCorps volunteer receives a stipend of $15,000 per year. CNCS has provided the funds to
cover the stipends for ten AmeriCorps VISTA volunteers to work on TFW-related activities since
2014.

Cleanups
All cleanups included educational talks that explained the SJBEP TFW initiative and the
importance of preventing trash and litter from reaching our waterbodies. As a result of these
cleanups, a total of 20,839 items, with an additional 23,001 cigarette butts, were collected and

Of particular note is the Banana Boat donation of $5,000 and the coordinated media tour they
executed during the month of April 2015 to raise public awareness concerning the SJBEP TFW
activities. As a result of Banana Boat's collaboration, the SJBEP was given coverage in
newspapers, radio, and TV, in addition to a special, in-depth, full-color, four page article in the
main island
newspaper, El Nuevo
Dia (an estimated
value of $40,000 in
free press for the
article). MillerCoors
joined the SJBEP TFW
efforts with a
donation of $5,000
and coordinated a
cleanup, monitoring,
and a red mangrove-
planting event in La
Esperanza Peninsula
in the San Juan Bay.
SJBEP TFW Progress
Since October 2014, when the first TFW coordinator joined SJBEP, the estuary program was
able to complete a total of 63 TFW activities as part of their workplan, including:
• IS cleanups (2 underwater and 16 land-based at 8 different sites with a total of 516
volunteers)
• 30 talks,
• 8 workshops,
• 15 solid waste stormwater
monitoring activities,
• one survey,
• cleanups,
• recycling program,
• plastic bag ban outreach
• educational materials,
• media campaign, and
• one marine litter educational
exhibition.

properly disposed of; nearly 2 tons of the waste collected will not become marine litter in the
SJBE.
Workshops
The eight workshops were led by 10 trained SJBEP TFW spokespersons that completed 30 talks
during the year. These talks were presented to school children in the Condado Lagoon area and
various summer camps.
Educational Exhibition- The SJBEP TFW initiative developed a marine litter educational
exhibition that included displays trash collected during underwater cleanups. These illustrative
displays were first presented to the public during the World Environment Day activity held at
the Plaza de Armas in Old San Juan. The exhibition consisted of multiple 4' x 2' acrylic display
boxes that showcased various
examples of trash collected from
the marine environment. The
exhibition received a lot of media
coverage, and over 500 children
and adults visited the installation
during the first 4 hours. The
SJBEP TFW exhibition has been
displayed at other locations
within the SJBE watershed. The
main objective of these displays
is to present the real perspective
of marine litter and its
consequences in the ecosystems.
Another achievement of the SJBEP TFW initiative was the launch of the San Juan Municipality
recycling program in Old San Juan. The municipality invested $250,000 in the project with an
overall goal to recover and recycle nearly 60% of the estimated 28,000 lbs of waste generated
in the city per day.
SJBEP TFW Media Campaign
Since 2014 the SJBEP has maintained a
media presence with features in TV
interviews, radio programs, and the
print media. In addition, the SJBEP
has developed a series TFW of public
service announcements. Over
$100,000 in free ads placement have
appeared in the island's main
newspapers.

publications, the Web, YouTube and social media. The AmeriCorps VISTA volunteers (VISTAs)
also have been involved in the graphic design of guides, documents, educational videos and
posters, flyers, and other outreach materials needed to support the SJBEP's TFW activities.
Additionally, several of the SJBEP TFW activities have been highlighted in the SJBEP director's
bloe.
Educational Materials
Currently, the SJBEP is in the process of creating an interactive map using data gathered by
VISTAs and SJBEP volunteers during clean up events to identify sites where the most cigarettes
butts have been collected. They also
are preparing other maps within the
SJBE watershed to identify trash
hotspots. These maps are used as
educational materials during events
such as field trips with students and
meetings with citizens. The maps will
be completed by the end of fiscal year

Plastic Bag Ban Outreach
On October 31, 2015, the Governor of
Puerto Rico signed an Executive Order
to ban plastic bags. The legislature then passed a bill that the Governor signed into law (247-
2015) on December 29, 2015. The ban took effect in mid-2016 and was preceded by a six-
month educational campaign. To that effect the Municipality of San Juan began the process of
the implementation of the law by reaching out to different organizations. The SJBEP provides
education and outreach regarding the implementation of the law to businesses and general
public in Old San Juan and other adjacent areas.

TRASH FREE WATERS INTERNATIONAL
Trash Free Waters (TFW) International is a stakeholder-based approach to assist countries in addressing their land-based
sources of marine litter. The approach helps national and local governments, communities, NGOs, and the private sector
identify marine litter problems and prioritize interventions that are cost-effective, practical, and impactful. In Jamaica,
Panama and Peru, TFW provided practical steps to understand the marine litter issue holistically, specifically on how
waste is managed, which includes identifying gaps within a waste management system to inform action by stakeholders
and decision makers. TFW prepares a country to attract larger investments critical for establishing an environmentally
sound waste management system. EPA has advanced marine litter in internationalfora like theG7, G20 and the CEC
working closely with key NGO and private sector stakeholders including Ocean Conservancy, Alliance to End Plastic
Waste, Circulate Capital and American Chemistry Council.
THE GLOBAL MARINE LITTER PROBLEM
Every year, an estimated 11 to 28 billion pounds of plastic ends up in the ocean. Eighty-percent of these plastics come
from land-based sources. Globally, Asian countries represent the top six contributors (China, Indonesia, Philippines,
Vietnam, Thailand, Sri Lanka)of plastics into the ocean. Marine litter is largely attributed to uncollected or mismanaged
waste, and nonexistent waste management infrastructure.
JAMAICA
Project: The project in Whitehouse-Bluefields community focused on
establishing a program for waste collection and separation. The project
accelerated community action through the establishment of collection sites,
which included the strategic placement ofwaste bins to improve recycling
and awareness.
Partners: United Nations Caribbean Environment Program; Sandals
Foundation; Peace Corps Jamaica
Funding: EPA-$25K; Sandals Foundation - $5K; Leveraged Funds:$700Kfor
a UN Environment Program multi-year plastics initiative
Metrics: 200 bins labelled and placed; 34 collection locations established; 20
outreach activities conducted
PANAMA
Project:The project in Panama Cityfocused on raising public awareness an<
installed trash capture booms on Juan Diaz River, where trash initially
collected from the booms was transferred to a local recycling center for
bailing/processing. The project also developed educationaltools for local
schools and community organizations on the impacts of marine litterand
plastics in the environment.
Partners: United Nations Environment Program; Ministry of Environment
Panama; ANCON (NGO)
Funding: EPA-$25K;
Metrics: 5 environmental education and outreach campaigns conducted in
schools; 2 commercial facilities trained in waste separation and recycling; 2
trash capture devices installed; 7 neighborhoods sensitized to project and
river booms
-------
PERU
Project: The project focused on job training in two communities
within the municipality of Chincha for informal waste pickers and
improved the connection between waste pickers and a regional
recycling facility. As part of the formalization effort, our partner,
Ciudad Saludable, implemented a source segregation and selective
collection program that was expanded and now includes
alliances with recycling associations. The project also identified litter
leakage hot spots for Chincha to help prioritize removal efforts.
Partners: Ministry of Environment Peru; U.S. Embassy Peru; lea
Regional Government; Ciudad Saludable (NGO); Coca-Cola
Funding: EPA-$75K; Leveraged Funds: Coca-Cola -$300K; USAID -
$300K used to construct an additional regional collection facility for
recyclable material
Metrics: 2 regional job trainings toformalize and register waste pickers; 16 hot spot sites identified, and a plan for
regularwaste removal
OUTREACH TO INTERNATIONAL PARTNERS
EPA has been working with priority countries and international partners to address marine litter by:
• Leveraging action done by private sector and NGO partners including the Alliance to End Plastic Waste and
the Ocean Conservancy, includingth rough providing technical assistance to Ocean Conservancy's Urban
Ocean initiative in pilot cities.
• Leveraging Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Projects through the Working Group on Marine Debris
and through participation in APEC workshops to provide trainings on the TFW model.
• Working with multilateral development banks, including the World Bank and the Asian Development Bank to
address marine litter in developing countries in Asia.
• Working trilaterallythrough ongoing Commission for Environmental Cooperation (CEC) marine litter projects
in shared border watersheds with Canada and Mexico.
• Seeking opportunities for TFW Internationalexpansion under U.S. Free Trade Agreements, including in
Central Americanand the Caribbean.
• Meeting bilaterally with priority countries in Asia at the G20 Environmental Ministerial Meeting to discuss
collaboration on regional marine litter issues.

Trash Capture in the Proctor Creek
Watershed
Trash capture in the Proctor
Creek watershed serves as an
example of interagency
collaboration and private sector
engagement to advance clean,
trash-free communities. The
Proctor Creek Urban Waters
Federal Partnership ambassa-
dor and the Region 4Trash Free
Waters coordinator work
closely to leverage resources
and reach goals within the
community. Thanks in part to
their advocacy, Coca-Cola has
invested in the watershed to
enhance trash capture efforts
as part of their World Without
Waste campaign. Coca-Cola
has now funded two trash
capture projects in six locations
within the Proctor Creek
Watershed. One project is being
carried out in partnership with
the Chattahoochee RiverKeeper
and the other through the
National Recreation and Park
Association (NRPA) and City of
Atlanta. Various trash capture
devices such as litter gitters
have been installed both in the
main spine of Proctor Creek
and in several tributaries. They
are placed in accessible and
highly visible areas close to
elementary schools, greenways,
and pedestrian walking bridges
where people can view first-
hand the amount of in-stream
trash being collected.
Other aspects of the projects
include data collection using
the EPA's Escaped Trash
Assessment Protocol (ETAP)
tool, continued maintenance
training and workforce develop-
ment, and outreach and
education with schools and
adult learning centers. This
trash capture network is
considered a demonstration
project which can be used to
provide information for parties
domestically and abroad that
could be interested in planning
and designing a similar

Stormwater & Litter Workshop
On February 10th, Clean Virginia
Waterways hosted the 2020
Stormwater and Litter Work-
shop in Ashland, VA. The goal
of the workshop was to help
stormwater and litter-prevention
professionals address urban
trash pollution and implement
strategies and engineered
solutions to intercept trash.
Topics included the connection
between stormwater and our
oceans, state legislative
solutions to reducing litter,
stormwater technology, using
MS4 permits to monitor and
control plastic pollution, and
reducing littering behavior
through community-based
social marketing. The second
half of the workshop included a
group discussion and exercise
to help direct future trash
interception efforts under the
Virginia Marine Debris Reduc-
tion Plan. The Clean Virginia
Waterways Stormwater & Litter
Workshop has now become an
annual event for professionals
to gain insight and training.

THE FLOW OF...TRASH FREE WATERS
Update on Hayward Youth Based Capture Expansion
Under the San Francisco Bay Area storm-
water permit, Hayward is one of 76
municipalities responsible for achieving a
100% reduction in trash discharges into the
Bay by 2022. From 2015- 2019, the City of
Hayward installed three large trash capture
devices treating over 1,000 acres of the
city's watersheds, with the goal of prevent-
ing over 20,000 gallons of trash from
entering San Francisco Bay per year. EPA's
San Francisco Bay Water Quality Improve-
ment Fund provided the funding to support
this project. A fourth trash capture device
will be implemented this fall in another high
trash-generating area. The scope of this
project includes not only capturing trash,
but also characterizing and quantifying the
trash collected and implementing actions to
engage the public (specifically youth) to
prevent littering. Hayward is continuing to
implement a 1 st-through-12th grade trash

New Story Map Highlighting Marine Debris Clean Up in Samish Traditional Territory
decided to survey the region for
marine debris before sending
out cleanup crews. They found
that over 325 creosote or
marine debris sites were
present within the San Juan
Islands and used imagery, GPS
coordinates, and size of debris
to expedite the process and
prioritize highly contaminated
shorelines. Pre-cleanup data
collection was used to make
informed decisions about
where to allocate resources for
efficient cleanup and removal
efforts. In 2019, the team
resurveyed the 2017 survey
area and found 141 fewer
contaminated sites.
The Samish DNR and its
partners plan to continue their
cleanup efforts this summer.
Restoring the Samish Territory
ensures the protection of the
Samish People's cultural identity
which is deeply connected to
the Salish Sea coastal environ-
ment. Check out the Creosote

A creosote piling being removed from Lopez Island, WA.
A GIS story map tool was
recently developed by the
Samish Indian Nation Depart-
ment of Natural Resources
(DNR) with support provided by
EPA Region 10. Over the past
six years, the Samish DNR
partnered with the Washington
Department of National
Resources, Washington
Conservation Corps, Veterans
Conservation Corps, and
EarthCorps to remove over
76,000 pounds of treated wood
and other marine debris
(equivalent to 18,000 gallons of
chemical creosote) from public
and private shorelines of Skagit
County, Island County, Southern
Whatcom County and the San
Juan Islands within the San
Juan Archipelago off the coast
of mainland Washington.
Projects highlighted in the story
map include removing creosote
treated wood and other debris
like plastic and Styrofoam that
washes onto beaches, lagoons,
and estuaries, as well as
removing derelict shoreline
structures.
The story map highlights which
shorelines were addressed
under the cleanup project each
year. In 2017, the Samish DNR

Salish Sea Hydrodynamic Model for Microplastics Hotspots
In 2018, EPA hired the Pacific Northwest
National Laboratory (PNNL) to use their
Salish Sea Hydrodynamic Model to
examine transport and accumulation
patterns of waste plastics entering the
Salish Sea, the complex fjord system
shared by Washington State and British
Columbia. The southern part is frequently
referred to as Puget Sound. Coast Salish
people in the region use the term Salish Sea
for these waters, north and south, to
highlight their longstanding stewardship of
it and the cross-border interconnections.
The increasing level of escaped plastic
trash in the Pacific Northwest has been
identified as a significant concern to the
health of the Salish Sea marine ecosystem.
The Salish Sea Model (SSM) was developed
through a collaborative effort between
PNNL and state and federal agencies to
model water circulation and transport
throughout the Salish Sea watershed. The
2018 Trash Free Waters study sought to
answer four questions: 1) If microplastics
were uniformly entering the Salish Sea,
where would they accumulate? 2) How is
the micro plastic load from wastewater
treatment plants expected to travel in the
Salish Sea? 3) How great is the potential
for microplastics to accumulate in regions
where shellfish beds are located? and 4)
Where would macro trash (greater than
5 mm) accumulate if it was uniformly
entering the Salish Sea watershed?
When the questions were posed, the
uniform entry of microplastics seemed
unlikely, and the model run was proposed
to better understand comparative factors
between scenarios. Since the model run,
EPA has become aware of findings that
indicate that tire particle wear, a normal
part of tire use, may be releasing micro
plastics in what is indeed a broad scale
across the landscape and that storm water
is bringing those particles into waterways
such as the Salish Sea.
While the SSM is geographically specific,
there are similar hydrodynamic models in
other waterways. Using them for studies
like this help us all determine where to
focus our efforts. For more information on
the Salish Sea Model, visit https://sal-
ish-sea.pnnl.gov/SSM/projects/marine-pol-
lution/microplastic-transportstm.

Coastal Heartland NEP "Trash Tackle" Cleanup Event
The Coastal & Heartland National Estuary
Partnership (CHNEP) held a 'Trash Tackle'
on Saturday, February 29:h, in partnership
with Keep Charlotte Beautiful and to
celebrate #EmbracetheGulf2020 and
Great American Cleanup month. CHNEP
staff educated the 33 volunteers about
single use plastics and microplastics.
Volunteers and staff then picked up
marine debris out of the mangroves and
shoreline along Charlotte Harbor in Punta
Gorda, FL. This event was part of a
monthly volunteer event series that
CHNEP offers to educate and equip
citizens to protect and restore the natural
resources in their own communities.

Schuylkill CleanSweep App
The new and improved
Schuylkill CleanSweep App
(Streets and Walkways Educa-
tion and Enforcement Program)
is officially up and running.
CleanSweep is a free tool which
can be used to find and record
cleanup efforts, register
cleanup events and teams, and
report and adopt litter hotspots.
The expansion of the Clean-
Sweep App was designed to
help volunteer cleanup coordi-
nators document and record
team successes within the
watershed. The app is comple-
mented by a "Guidebook for
Leading Litter Cleanups."
Project sponsors include the
Schuylkill Action Network,
Partnership for the Delaware
Estuary, Schuylkill River
Greenways, and William Penn
Foundation. This litter data
collection system expansion
was supported by a 2018 EPA
Urban Waters grant. Metrics
and photos uploaded through
the app will also be displayed
on the Schuylkill CleanSweep
website here: https://schuylkill-
cleansweep.org/. This app will
serve to enhance the ongoing
work being done in the
Schuylkill watershed to connect
people, science, and nature
for a healthy Delaware River
and Bay.
