Summary

The California Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989 requires a city's or a county's household hazardous waste element to include a program containing specified components for the safe collection, treatment, and disposal of sharps waste generated by households. The act requires the California Integrated Waste Management Board, in consultation with specified entities, to develop model programs for the collection and proper disposal of drug waste. This bill would require, on or before July 1, 2010, and annually thereafter, a pharmaceutical manufacturer that sells or distributes medication that is self-injected at home through the use of hypodermic needles and other similar devices to submit to the board, or its successor agency, a plan that describes how the manufacturer supports the safe collection and proper disposal of the waste devices. The bill would require the manufacturer and the board, or its successor or agency, to post and maintain the plans on their respective Internet Web sites.
