Citizens and Government working together for the future
Please join the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago in participating in the National Prescription Drug Take Back on Saturday, April 26, 2014. In the past, the public was encouraged to dispose of unwanted or expired drugs by flushing them down the toilet, but we now realize that these contaminants can end up in our streams, lakes, and groundwater. Despite the fact that we have state-of-the-art wastewater treatment facilities, these plants are not designed to deal with pharmaceutical waste. By using advanced technical equipment, scientists have found very small traces of pharmaceutical compounds in groundwater, streams, wastewater, and drinking water. Proper disposal of unwanted or expired medicine is good for the environment. In addition to the environmental benefits, proper disposal of unwanted drugs is important in order to ensure that the drugs are not used improperly or illegally. Unused prescription drugs thrown in the trash can be retrieved and can lead to accidental poisoning, overdose, and abuse. The collection will take place at the Main Gate House of the following Water Reclamation Plants (WRP) on Saturday, April 26, 2014, from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Patrick D. Thompson at 312-751-5670 or patrick.thompson@mwrd.org.
