of a mix of latex paint, solvents, drugs of all types. This is much easier to track down the highway and will deter most opportunists. We do the best we can with what we've got on hand. And if people are willing to drink trucker pee, they can give paint
a try, I won't stand in the way of that kind of brain. </font></div>

issue, which Stevan or others in Maine may be able to answer - the pharma mailback mailers that I've seen now instruct people to keep the pharmaceuticals in their original containers when placed into the provided envelope. That does seem to increase the bulk
and weight of each mailer. I can see the concern that loose pills could slip out of the envelope, but it appears that even putting all the pills together into a single sealable baggie - or maybe into a single pill bottle - and then into the envelope is not
an option. Is this a USPS concern that certain drug mixtures could be hazardous? If you make a slurry of any pills with any liquids and put it in a sealable baggie - which always has the potential to leak when mailed - could those mixtures be dangerous
to the average postal worker? Likewise, if household hazardous waste facilities receive loose pharmaceuticals and then comingle them with poisons, how dangerous could that be?

other drug related evidence in the room. Maybe the whole article is reporter confusion.

<p style="BACKGROUND: #f3f3f3" class="MsoNormal"><font color="black" size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="COLOR: black; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">I'm currently surveying all pharma collection sites in California to comply with our

SB 966</a> so I have a pretty good handle on all the roughly 45 law enforcement sites in the state - although I'll know more after all the results come in.
</span></font></p>

<a href="http://www.calrecycle.ca.gov/HomeHazWaste/Medications/ModelProgram/Criteria.pdf" target="_blank">
model program guidelines</a>, which are now the leading officially-sanctioned guidelines in California. Those non-mandatory guidelines include language specific to law enforcement programs, and SB 966 includes this statement:</span></font></p>
<p style="BACKGROUND: #f3f3f3" class="MsoNormal"><font color="black" size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="COLOR: black; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">(d) Model programs deemed in compliance with this article shall be deemed in compliance with state law and regulation
concerning the handling, management, and disposal of drug waste for the purposes of implementing the model program.</span></font></p>

<a href="http://www.calrecycle.ca.gov/HomeHazWaste/Medications/ModelProgram/Criteria.pdf" target="_blank">
15-page guidelines</a> since much of it touches on law enforcement and controlled substances issues. However, these two provisions stand out:</span></font></p>
<p style="BACKGROUND: #f3f3f3" class="MsoNormal"><font color="black" size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="COLOR: black; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">For controlled substances, the signed inventory must accompany the pharmaceutical waste and must stay with law enforcement
in the evidence storage locker and through the point of destruction. Before the home-generated pharmaceutical waste is destroyed, the contents must be checked against the inventory to ensure that there has been no diversion. This is a U.S. Drug Enforcement
Agency law.</span></font></p>

<p style="BACKGROUND: #f3f3f3" class="MsoNormal"><font color="black" size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="COLOR: black; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">c.
<u>Law Enforcement</u> - Law enforcement may participate in a collection event to provide security for event personnel. This is optional and at the discretion of collection organizers. A law enforcement officer is only required to attend and participate in
a collection event only if controlled substances are to be accepted at the event. Per U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) law, only a law enforcement officer may accept controlled substances from the consumer. If controlled substances will be accepted, the
operator of the event shall ask the law enforcement agency that is providing the officer if the agency has any specific requirements that the event must adhere to. For example, the law enforcement agency may specify the type of packaging that the drugs must
be contained in to be accepted into their evidence locker, or if the containers the collection event will provide, are adequate for the law enforcement agency purposes. For controlled substances only, law enforcement must be on site at all times and be able
to see the collection and movement of the home-generated pharmaceutical wastes from the public to the collection location. Law enforcement must be able to see the transfer of home-generated pharmaceutical wastes from vehicles to the collection containers.
The operator should coordinate with law enforcement to determine the appropriate position for law enforcement to be stationed.</span></font></p>

<p style="BACKGROUND: #f3f3f3" class="MsoNormal"><font color="black" size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="COLOR: black; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">One program has their drop-box under surveillance in the parking lot about 50 feet from the entrance to their law
enforcement facility. They said they had some trouble with what they were assuming were small businesses dropping off a lot of pharmaceutical waste and/or sharps but that may have worked itself out by now. They also told me if they had to do it over again,
they wouldn't recommend putting the bin in the parking lot if for no other reason because of the inconvenience of emptying the box that's 50 feet away.
