DEA only does collection events. There are only a few places in MN that pick up DEA's twice annual advertising, if any, since we have 450 permanent collection sites. DEA does claim collection volume in MN that is unrelated to the events. If law enforcement collection sites time their disposal for just after DEA's events, DEA pays the WTE incineration bill for all of them. We have trouble ferreting out double counting because of this. DEA totals for MN are mainly pounds that were collected over the past 6 months. They don't have a problem with it, they have the budget and can claim more pounds.

I think the events are still needed in some states-it may be the only collection option for some.

Collection in MN started with law enforcement, because it started before DEA changed their laws. Now that we have as many retail collection sites as law enforcement, we are hearing that LE isn't  getting as much, which is perfectly fine. It makes more sense to collect at pharmacies. I'll have to check numbers this year to see if retail is finally collecting more than LE.

Ed,
It sure looks like there is a clear downward trend since 2018 (I didn't look further).  Has there been research on the cause of the decrease?  Do we think we are clearing out people's stashes, or is it other opportunities to get rid of meds, or fatigue on the issue?  Many others?  Susan
