Daily News for Friday, August 23, 2024
Rinse and Return Program for pesticide containers is Aug 29 From Nick Roy Adair County Extension Agent for Agriculture & Natural Resources The 2024 Rinse and Return pesticide recycling program will be held from 1pmCT until 2:30pmCT on Thursday, August 29, 2024 at the Adair County Cooperative Extension Service, 409 Fairground Street, Columbia, KY. Farmers, gardeners, and homeowners are encouraged to dispose of their empty pesticide containers during this time. Empty pesticide containers should be triple rinsed, booklets and lids removed, and punctured. Due to the materials previously held by these pesticide containers they cannot be recycled with your ordinary household plastics. This program allows for the proper recycling of these pesticide containers. This reduces the amount of material entering the landfill or being disposed of by other means. Some of the end products include drainage pipe, highway sign posts, underground utility conduit, and wire/cable spool flanges. 2024-08-23 18:17:49 | Comments | Printable version
