The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has scheduled another National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day on Saturday, September 29, 2012, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. This event is a great opportunity to return unwanted or expired prescription drugs, thereby reducing pollutant loadings into our waterways.
