Maybe Omnicare should be on all states radar or maybe EPA's to see how they are handling this across the country, they 're a national company.

"Omnicare is an Ohio based company doing business in Londonderry, New Hampshire as Omnicare of New Hampshire. Omnicare operates community-based, long-term care mail order pharmacies that primarily service group living facilities (i.e., nursing homes, assisted living facilities and jails) and generates the majority of its hazardous waste through a product return program.

These violations, as well as Omnicare's failure to follow certain hazardous waste management requirements, were discovered during a DES inspection in October of 2011. Omnicare quickly corrected the problems once identified by DES and was cooperative throughout the investigation.

Under the terms of the settlement, Omnicare will be assessed a total penalty of $298,100."
