We have noticed that there is no way of capturing garbage at the inflow of our storm water pond. A variety of garbage is entering the pond with devastating effects. Recently (see our slideshow) we noted that a large amount of styrofoam had entered the pond and broken up into small spherical pieces. These pieces are difficult to remove but could possibly be eaten by a variety of animals. According to the web site noted above, it is possible to use "trash traps" to capture garbage. This could be an effective piece of technology for our storm water pond and perhaps all ponds in the city and region.
