This waste, created by New York City's population of more than eight million, can amount to more than ten thousand tons a day. Waste management has been an issue for New York City since its New Amsterdam days. As a 1657 New Amsterdam ordinance states, “It has been found, that within this City of Amsterdam in New Netherland many burghers and inhabitants throw their rubbish, filth, ashes, dead animals and suchlike things into the public streets to the great inconvenience of the community".
