The Manhattan Beach citywide outdoor smoking ban will make a major impact on reducing the amount of cigarette butt litter throughout the city, including sidewalks, streets, storm drains, parks, the beach, and the ocean, and also helps the city meet stringent EPA-established Impaired Waters and Total Maximum Daily Loads Program (TMDL) clean water standards.
