Explanation

Mowing a littered portion of right of way would:
  • increase the risk of the mowers striking unseen objects and causing harm to people, machinery and passing traffic
  • cause shredding of large pieces of litter, resulting in more time consuming litter pickup operations
  • expose more litter to view.
