[Pharmwaste] RE: Timely request - EPR and pharms

[Jim Mullowney]

Rhode Island has pending EPR legislation for the collection of human waste containing cytotoxic chemotherapy drugs as recommended by the World Health Organization. The former head of the International agency for Cancer Research  (WHO) testified in person in favor of the bill as well as many others. More information can be found at www.cytotoxicsafety.org I will share the document when it is final.

It is final- it passed uneventfully 5-0 Tuesday and we are trying to keep press to a minimum to let them put out their press first and not to stir up a lot of press before the supreme court decision on the Alameda case expected May 26t.

I have a very timely request for the list serve...please let me know as soon as you can if you have information related to the following:

First, does anyone know if the pharmaceutical EPR ordinance passed by San Mateo County CA is now final, or are there other hurdles? If passed, when will it be effective, and when will it be implemented?

Second, please let me know if your local or state government has active EPR pharms legislation or if you are seriously considering the introduction of such legislation.

If you want this information to be kept confidential, please contact me directly and we will honor that request.

Thanks very much!

Scott
