This is not far from another illegal dumping of garbage reported in April 2014 and STILL not cleaned up (issue #1039778, Oakland (CA) Public Works Service Request #513514). Please clean up BOTH of these sites before this becomes a common occurrence. These dump sites are on the south hillside above Viejo Arroyo Creek, a site of many Creek to Bay Day cleanups. If you need help, please contact the Oakland Zoo since they are the official "stewards" of the parks.

The City of Oakland Public Works Department has referred this issue to KNOWLAND, PARK MAINTENANC. Please contact that department to follow-up (see "Other Helpful Links" at http://www2.oaklandnet.com/Government/o/PWA/Connect/ReportaProblem/index.htm#Links).
