in take-back programs in order to encourage law enforcement to continue to offer these critical programs to the public. This memorandum describes the various cost-effective options that law enforcement agencies can use to transport and destroy household drugs
collected to comply with EPA, U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency, U.S. Department of Transportation and U.S. Postal Service regulations. This guidance can be found here:
