Do you have unwanted medication(s) you need to dispose of?

The U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency (D.E.A.), along with the Hanover Board of
Health and the Hanover Police Department, is coordinating a nationwide
one-day event to take back unwanted medications on Saturday, September 25,
2010 at the Hanover Town Hall on Route 139 in Hanover, between the hours of
10 a.m. and 2 p.m.

This national initiative will provide an opportunity for the public to
surrender pharmaceutical controlled substances and other medications to law
enforcement officers for destruction. Expired, unused or unwanted
substances in our homes are a potential source of supply for the increasing
abuse of pharmaceutical drugs in the United States and an unacceptable risk
to public health and safety.
