2 . North Texas Community Cleanup Challenge
For FY20 the PETF special project focused on public education and awareness of litter and floatables in stormwater . This special project had a two-part approach , the first of which was focused on public education messaging via social media and the creation of toolkits , otherwise referred to as the “ Plastic Pollution Educational Toolkit ”. The “ Plastic Pollution Educational Toolkits ” focused on a different type of litter each month ( such as balloons , straws , to-go containers ) and were created monthly for the period of February 2020 to September 2020 and a holiday edition for November and December of 2020 . All FY20 “ Plastic Pollution Educational Toolkit ” templates and associated visual files can be accessed at https :// www . nctcog . org / envir / watershed-management / stormwater / public-education-task-force under the “ Outreach Materials and Resources ” heading .
The second part of the approach was the creation of a regional community cleanup challenge , which has been named the North Texas Community Cleanup Challenge ( NTCCC ). Originally scheduled for September and October of 2020 , due to COVID-19 related challenges and restrictions , the cleanup challenge was postponed until September 1 st – October 31 st , 2021 . A landing page for the regional cleanup challenge was started during FY20 with further work and updates completed in FY21 . The special project landing page can be found at http :// www . communitycleanupchallenge . com /. For the 2021 NTCCC twenty-one ( 21 ) communities signed on to compete in the challenge including : Allen , Anna , Arlington , Carrollton , Cleburne , Keep Denton Beautiful , Keep Ennis Beautiful , Fort Worth , Frisco , Garland , Grand Prairie , Keep Grapevine Beautiful , Keep Greenville Beautiful , Irving , Keep Lake Dallas Beautiful , Keep Little Elm Beautiful , Lucas , Mansfield , Mesquite , Plano , Keep Rowlett Beautiful .
