LuAnne Holeva from the Wayne County Soil and Water Conservation District has highlighted a long list of people who helped to make the most recent Tox-A-Way Day a major success. According to the Pal-Item article, "The program provided residents of Wayne and Union counties the opportunity to properly dispose of household hazardous waste items that may have been collecting around their house and property. Items collected were limited to paints, thinners, solvents, aerosols, herbicides, pesticides, flashlight-type batteries and most liquid wastes used around the house. There were over 300 residents that participated in this special collection day." Congratulations to LuAnne and all of the people and organizations participating.
