Littering laws are tough.

Stephanie Innes reports for the Arizona Daily Star:
"An immigrant-aid volunteer is facing a $175 fine for leaving water jugs in the desert for illegal entrants.
Daniel Millis, 28, was cited for littering Friday by a Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge law enforcement officer.
He said he'd left 22 water jugs in the desert and told a refuge officer where they were located.
Millis said the officer was planning to go get them. The officer seized another eight jugs he had with him, Millis said.
Millis and three other volunteers with the Tucson-based No More Deaths organization had been placing 1-gallon plastic water jugs on a trail in the refuge, which is known to be heavily traveled by migrants who are illegally crossing into the U.S. from Mexico on foot."
