Yellow Jug Old Drugs program 
Seeking info from Surveys 

The Yellow Jug Old Drugs program is looking for individuals to complete a Survey as part of the requirement for the DEQ grant just received by the organization. The Yellow Jug Old Drugs program was started by Great Lakes Clean Water, a non-profit organization in May 2009. Yellow Jug Old Drugs is a program that works in partnership with local pharmacies to collect and properly dispose of unwanted/unused drugs in a safe and approved manner to help keep our water clean. 
Chris Angel, President of Great Lakes Clean Water Organization states, “The Survey takes just 5 minutes to complete and the information we gather will be very helpful to our project.”    
The Survey is available at the Great Lakes Clean Water website www.greatlakescleanwater.org.  or by calling 989-736-8179.
   The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality recently awarded the Yellow Jug Old Drugs program a $77,125 grant. A total of $250,000 in funding was awarded through the Michigan Community Pollution Prevention (P2) Grant Program for the development of ongoing household drug collection programs.
