Here in Ohio, it seems a number of law enforcement collections were saving up what they collected and then bringing it to the DEA Take Back Day every  6 months.  What I’m hearing from a few law enforcement offices is that they are wondering what their options will be now that the DEA collection has ended.  Fortunately for us, we have 2 hazardous waste incinerators in Ohio and I believe they are charging about $1 per pound.  So it wouldn’t be excessively expensive for LE offices in Ohio to dispose of their collected pharms.  It will be a matter of the LE offices committing financially and with time to transporting collected pharms to one of these incinerators a few times a year.

We have 276 locations in Ohio.

The DEA website has easy to understand materials for you.

Ok, I have to admit I haven’t read the new DEA reg very carefully.  How would it affect current take-back programs with LE?  Is it the controlled substance requirements?  Please break this down in the simplest terms possible ‘cause this really isn’t in my job description.

Subject: [Pharmwaste] Group discussion on take back programs

To those who have been conducting take back programs with law enforcement,

Now that the new DEA rule has been out for a bit and we've had some time to absorb the information, I am interested in coordinating a group discussion for those who have been conducting take back programs with law enforcement and are now concerned that they may have to discontinue their programs.

If you're interested in having a discussion, perhaps sometime next week, please email me directly at jeanie.jaramillo at ttuhsc.edu<mailto:jeanie.jaramillo at ttuhsc.edu> .
