<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-family:"MS Sans Serif","serif"">In our program, the evidence room managers of the participating police agencies are voicing frustration over the disposal of items in the collection
containers that are viewed, by the agencies, as outside the realm of the intended use of the program. Examples would include vitamins, over-the-counter meds etc...

of these products. The police staff are looking at controlling illegal use of prescription meds. I would like them to collect these products but don't wish to alienate them to the point that they consider backing out all together. </span></p>
