Again this year, the Office of the Indiana State Chemist's Pestcide Clean Sweep Project is offering pick-up locations around the state. The project is designed to collect and dispose of suspended, canceled, banned, usuable, opened, unopened, or unwanted pestcide products. These include weed killers, insecticides, rodenticides, fungicides, miticides, etc. The pick-ups are intended for public and private schools, golf courses, nurseries, farmers, agricultural retailers, and municipalities.
Locally, the pick-up location will be held August 9, 2012 at the Dubois County Fairgrounds just north of Bretzville, IN on SR 162, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM EDT.
Participants are asked to complete and submit a planning form no later than Monday, July 30 in order to participate. Pick-up locations may be canceled if there is not enough demand, so it is important to submit the planning form prior to attending.
For more information, please see the flyer and planning form located on the OISC website or call (765) 494-1492.
