The Florence Police Department has participated in this program for several years and has been successful in removing hundreds of pounds of medications for safe dispos- al. People can bring their unwanted, outdated or expired prescription and over-the- counter medications to the Florence Bi-Mart, 4310 Highway 101, on Oct. 28 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Acceptable items include: prescription medications, over the counter medications, vita- mins, drug samples, pet med- ications, ointments, lotions and liquid medicines in glass or leak proof containers. This event is unable to accept needles, thermometers, bloody or infectious waste, medicines from businesses, hydrogen peroxide, aerosol cans, inhalers and diabetic meters. Thousands of pounds of medications have been turned in at sites operated by the DEA and its thousands of state and local law enforcement part- ners.

The last two suppers for October will be held Oct. 18 at St. Andrews Episcopal Church (2136 19th St.) and Oct. 25 at United Methodist Church (Second and Kingwood streets). Both suppers are 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. • In the article “Major Changes in Recycling Take Effect” (Page A1, Oct. 7), County Transfer and Recycling was mistakenly called Florence Sanitation and Recycling. Siuslaw News regrets the errors.
