   Thank you, this list is very helpful. Email for these centers would also be helpful.

   On my ride today I counted 3 dead skunks, 1 dead raccoon, 1 dead unidentifiable, lots of gravel, and 2 large piles of broken glass all in a 2 mile long stretch of San Tomas Expwy. It is unclear what jurisdiction corresponds to sections of this road.

   The concrete plant near 101 and San Tomas seems to be an ever increasing source of gravel on the road. The truck operators are legally responsible for this spillage. Today I popped a rock into the side of a car; this happens frequently.

   Similarly, the glass in the road is supposed to be cleaned up by the tow truck driver; this is a legal obligation. The law is clearly not being enforced. I have even watched a CHP officer over see a tow truck haul away a damaged car, and ignore the scattered car parts in the bike lane. I called the CHP to complain, but all they did was send a CHP officer out to pick up the parts when they should have forced the tow truck operator (I provided identification information) to do the clean up.
