Sanitation officials said Wednesday that they expect to haul away 30 tons of debris from the Occupy L.A. encampment –- everything from clothing to heaps of garbage to oddball curiosities left behind by the protesters who lived at the City Hall tent city for two months.
Andrea Alarcon, president of the city Public Works board, said workers already have removed 25 tons of belongings from the City Hall park, all of it heading straight to a landfill.
Sanitation crews also have vacuumed up about 3,000 gallons of water that had washed into a catch basin in recent days and are testing it for hazardous materials, she said.
The sheer volume of personal belongings left behind after the early morning Los Angeles Police Department raid has astonished city workers: books and CDs, luggage and boom boxes, mattresses and dining chairs, cellphones, electric razors, a small red guitar with its neck snapped –- all surrounded by dozens of collapsed and empty tents.
A steady flow of people stopped by the park Wednesday to take photos and video and watch workers in white hazmat suits rake trash into neat piles.
As workers broke down tents and placed them in trash cans, Ramir Delgado, 25, snapped photos out of curiosity.
"It's a shame how I see all trash around here," he said. He pointed to his head. "People don't understand that the freedom starts here in your mind."
Delgado said he was disappointed in Occupy L.A.
"You know why this is filthy and not clean is there isn't leadership," he said.
A few feet away, crews in the hazmat suits raked trash of discarded protest signs, nail polish and jars of peanut butter.

Was it this group bemoaning the loss of their 5,000 book "library"?

Norman Schwartz, 76, a retired attorney from Calabasas, felt differently. He stopped by Wednesday afternoon to snap photos and suggested that the Occupy L.A. scene was a great lesson in democracy. He said he was sad to see the park so empty.
That was my favorite quote from the article tells you all you need to know about the mind set of most the people left in Kaliforincation.

The original OWS organization has a bank account in New York City with over $500,000.00 in it from donations . That account should be siezed and used to pay for some of the clean-up around the country .

30 tons? R u kidding? That's all? I'd think it would be more.
The answer is simple. This was all mommy and daddy's stuff. They didn't pay so they have no respect for the stuff.
If it wasn't mommys and daddy's, it was donated. It was not earned. People who Use their hard earned wages for things do not treat their belongings in such a manner.
Ows ended up the poster child why the democratic ideal of their many free programs "to end poverty" are ineffective and result in a culture of dependency.

Maybe they weren't sifting through that 30 tons too carefully..
