Polluting Mobile's Waterways With Mardi Trash

With regards to Mardi Gras, the City of Mobile brags on its Public Works department saying they, "Installed 64 grates on storm drains to prevent litter from entering waterways."

Meantime, this is a storm water drain along a main Mobile parade route seen last weekend. No mesh grate on this drain.

Nothing preventing China's Mardi Trash beads, confetti and other trash from going into this storm drain. 

Why is it no surprise to see Mobile's  Public Works doing a half ass job when it comes to preventing the pollution of Mobile waterways with Mardi Trash? They should put narrow mesh grates on all the inlets along the parade routes instead of just some of them.
