Section 1
Introduction
-1-
1.1
This document has been prepared by McGregor Tan Research to report on
Wave 59 of the quarterly KESAB Litter Monitor. Surveys for the current
wave were conducted in South Australia during November 2012.
Background
1.2
Regular monitoring of the litter stream is necessary in order to maintain a
clear picture of its components, such as the various material types that
contribute to the litter stream as well as the distribution of litter across
different area types. Keep South Australia Beautiful (KESAB) had been
monitoring the State's litter stream for many years, but the level of detail
required during the South Australian Government’s moratorium on changes
to Container Deposit Legislation was considerably greater than previously
recorded.
1.3
An expanded monitoring program commenced in February 1998, and
McGregor Tan Research was commissioned at that time to undertake the
actual count and to report regularly on the outcomes.
This expanded
program was continued throughout 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004,
2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and is planned to continue.
1.4
With the exception of August 2002, counts have been conducted quarterly,
carried out in February, May, August and November of each year.
Throughout the Monitor, care has been taken to maintain the data in a form
compatible with KAB's requirements.
1.5
During each Wave of the survey, litter counts are undertaken at 151 sites
across South Australia. In conjunction with the national litter count, a review
of all South Australian sites showed that 11 of the sites surveyed were
disproportionately represented in the data. These original sites were found
to be unusual in nature, and were replaced with 11 revised sites.
1.6
The data collection form utilised for the count was jointly developed by
McGregor Tan Research and KESAB. A copy of this form is provided in
Appendix 2.
1.7
In January 2003, Container Deposit Legislation (CDL) was extended to
cover most beverages under 1 litre, such as juice cartons, fruit boxes,
flavoured milk cartons, etc. As a result, a new method of analysing the data
had to be adopted so that the changes to the CDL, and the effect on the
total litter stream could be evaluated.
1.8
Prior to the August 2004 Litter Count, the data collection form was reevaluated and re-designed to take into account the changes to the CDL and
-2-
also to incorporate new categories for litter items that were previously coded
as ‘other’ or in an inappropriate category. The changes that were made to
the data collection form include:


Plastic bags were separated into 3 types of litter:
o
Supermarket type lightweight shopping bags
o
Heavier glossy, typically branded carry bags
o
Sacks, sheeting and other bags
Bottle and can tops were moved and separated from the
Miscellaneous Category into both ‘plastic bottle top’ and ‘metal bottle
and can tops’.

1.9
The following four litter types were also added to the Plastic category:
o
Bread bag tags
o
Lollipop sticks
o
Spoons/ cutlery
o
Drink pouches

The Metal Cans category name was changed to Metal.

Foil take away was moved from Miscellaneous to Metal.

Cigarette butts were separated from the Miscellaneous Category.

Two extra items were added to the Paper/paperboard category:
o
Paper bags
o
Shopper dockets & related shopping paper
In previous waves, the data collection form separated each litter type into
CDL and non-CDL categories However, extended Container Deposit
Legislation (CDL) has now meant that the litter categories alone (e.g.
Flavoured milk, < 1 litre) can be used to establish whether or not beverage
containers are covered under CDL or not.
1.10
In order to determine the effectiveness of the current CDL (as of January
2003), and for comparative purposes, it was necessary to re-calculate the
number of current CDL items from the waves prior to the extension.
References to CDL items in Waves prior to Wave 17 (waves 1-16) therefore
denote beverage containers that are currently covered by CDL – not the
items that were covered by the legislation prior to this time.
1.11
During the Wave 29 Monitor estimates of the volumes for each litter item
category were defined. The assignments of volume estimates to each litter
item category were based on actual measurements of containers/ items, the
condition that these items were most commonly found (which was based on
the audits of at least three Waves), and the most common or average size
-3-
of the items that were found within each category.
1.12
The auditors were an important part of the volume formulation process, and
these persons were able to record the number, size and type of different
items within each category over a number of waves. Volumes ascribed to
each item represented the average size for that category across all site
types.
1.13
The final volume attributed to each litter item category furthermore took into
account the fact that some items were often found crushed and weathered.
For example, some drink cans and cartons are often crushed and/ or
weathered when they are identified by the auditors and counted. The same
volume measurements have been used for all subsequent Waves.
1.14
Two noteworthy events that have taken place since the beginning of this
longitudinal study include:

The deposit on drink containers was increased from 5 cents to 10
cents in September 2008.

1.15
The ban on thin plastic shopping bags came into effect in May 2009.
This document reports on Wave 59 of the longitudinal study. The litter count
was conducted during November 2012. Section 2 of this report outlines the
litter characteristics of the 151 sites, which include 11 revised sites
(replacing 11 of the original 151). Appendix 1 contains charts tracking
results back across all prior Monitors, and includes weighted results to
facilitate meaningful comparison of results established at the 151 original
sites with results derived from the 151 revised sites.

Wave 59
Executive Summary
-5-
The following Executive Summary covers the findings of the November 2012
KESAB Litter Monitor (Wave 59). Where possible, results have been tracked
against those derived from any previous Waves which incorporated revised sites.
All 151 sites were counted during the November 2012 count.
Items Counted
A total of 13,294 litter items were counted across the 151 South Australian sites
during Wave 59. These figures are higher those from the previous monitor in
August (11,809) but below May 2012 (13,751) and February 2012 (13,326), the
results are also below those recorded in November 2011 (14,304) from the same
time last year.
Cigarette butts remained the main contributor (47%) to the litter count with 6,185
butts counted in Wave 59, up from Wave 58 (5,309), Wave 57 (5,986) and Wave 56
(6,136 butts) but below Wave 55 (6,602) counted at the same time last year in
November 2011.
The increase in items counted in Wave 59 was demonstrated most strongly

Litter Volume
The total volume of litter recorded in November 2012 amounted to 1.177 cubic
metres, 9% higher than the estimated litter volume established in the August 2012
Monitor (1.077m3) but 5% lower than the estimated litter volume established during
the volume recorded at the same time last year in November 2011 (1.241m3).
The largest proportion of litter volume for Wave 59 was contributed by
miscellaneous items (34%, down from 36% in Wave 58), plastic items (32%, up
from 28% in Wave 58) and paper/ paperboard items (22%, down from 24% in Wave
58). The most significant contributor to volume among miscellaneous items was
illegal dumping, this accounted for almost one third (31%) of the overall total
volume of litter.
Other material types represented the following proportions of the total volume of
litter items counted:

Metal (7%, up from 6% in Wave 58)

Glass (5%, unchanged from Wave 58)

Cigarette butts (<1%, unchanged from Wave 58)

A comparison of the proportions of litter items found at each site type revealed that
highway locations contributed large amounts to the total number of litter items
counted in the November 2012 Monitor. Although highway sites represented only
18% of the total number of sites surveyed, they contributed more than one quarter
(28%, down from 26% in Wave 58) of the total litter items counted in Wave 59.
Conversely, residential locations and beaches continued to only contribute smaller
proportions of litter items to the total litter count than anticipated based upon the
proportion of these sites within the overall sample of locations as outlined below:

Residential areas incorporated 17% of the sites surveyed, but contributed
only 7% (down from 9% in Wave 58) of the litter items counted in Wave 59

Beaches - represented 11% of the sites surveyed, but contributed only 3%
(down from 4% in Wave 58) of the litter counted in Wave 59
The remaining sites contributed the expected proportions of litter based on the
proportion of these sites among the overall number of sites counted during
November 2012, the proportions were:

Car parks incorporated 15% of the sites surveyed and contributed 18% (down
from 21% in Wave 58) of the litter items counted in Wave 59

Industrial areas incorporated 11% of the sites surveyed and contributed 15%
(up from 14% in Wave 58) of the total litter items counted in Wave 59

Retail areas - incorporated 10% of the sites surveyed and contributed 13%
(up from 11% in Wave 58) of the litter items counted in Wave 59

Shopping centres - incorporated 9% of the sites surveyed and contributed 9%
(down from 10% in Wave 58) of the litter items counted in Wave 59

Recreational parks – represented 9% of sites surveyed and contributed 6%
(unchanged from Wave 58) of the litter counted in Wave 59

Volume
More than half (56%, up from 55% in Wave 58) of the total volume of litter
estimated during Wave 59 was associated with litter items at highway locations.
Moderate volumes of litter were also contributed to the overall litter volume by
residential sites (13%, up from 6% in Wave 58) and industrial sites (11%, down
from 16% in Wave 58) during November 2012.
Lower volumes of litter were estimated at car park sites (8%, down from 13% in
Wave 58), recreational parks (5%, up from 1% in Wave 58), shopping centres (3%,
down from 4% in Wave 58), and retail sites (2%, unchanged from Wave 58) and
beaches (1%, down from 3% in Wave 58) to the total volume of litter recorded in
Wave 59.

Weighting of Previous Results
Since February 2006 (Wave 32), 11 revised sites have been surveyed
concurrently with the 151 original sites included within the litter monitor
program since its inception in February 1998. The new and old sites were
surveyed simultaneously across four Waves of the monitor.
These 11 revised sites have previously been surveyed concurrently with the
151 original sites to replace 11 of the original sites that were found to be
unusual in nature, and analyses have typically focused on results for the 151
sites including the 11 new sites and the 151 sites including the 11 old sites
separately.
However, in counts since the February 2007 Monitor only the 151 revised sites
(incorporating the 11 new locations) have been surveyed. In order to facilitate
tracking comparisons, figures prior to February 2007 have been weighted
based upon the variations between results corresponding to the 151 sites
including the 11 new sites and the 151 sites including the 11 old sites.
Weighting techniques were based upon comparisons of figures for items and
volumes recorded during Waves 32, 33, 34 and 35 across all sites
incorporating either the 11 original or 11 revised sites. Differences between
such figures provided indices of the degree of consistent variation between
original and revised site litter data, and reliable weightings were thereby
established.
Figures which have been weighted included:

Absolute values (counts and volumes) within material categories
and site types, since the inclusion of the revised sites resulted in
differences in nearly all absolute values of counted litter.

Comparisons between proportional representation of litter across
site types, due to the fact that site revision altered the proportions of
litter contributed to the total litter stream within certain site categories
whilst others remained unchanged.
However, preliminary investigations demonstrated that proportional contribution
to the total litter stream within material types was consistently similar between
the original and revised site sets. This finding supports the assumption that
whilst the quantities of litter recorded differed between old and new sites, the
types of materials present within such litter were relatively consistent. For this
reason, proportional figures within material types did not require weighting.
