color:#1F497D'>Here is a question from a non-member of the list serve. But I think
it is a good question for us to discuss and I’d like to hear of any
solutions other states have come up with for clinics, nursing homes, vets –
the people that kind of fall through the cracks – not covered by
homeowner’s exemptions but not big enough to use reverse distribution. I
hate to tell them about RCRA and that they need incur costs to dispose of their
drugs and have been told on more than one occasion that they are going to keep
flushing their meds until I come up with a regulation that says they can’t.
