1 Safe Medicine Disposal Ordinance? A Long Term Option for Prescription Drug Disposal Board of Public Utilities November 19 th,

2 Presentation Outline Background Safe Medicine Disposal Program Potential for Safe Medicine Disposal Ordinance Staff Recommendation

3 Russian River Watershed Association A coalition to coordinate regional programs for clean water, fisheries restoration and watershed enhancement. The RRWA works to protect these resources at the most efficient cost to our member agencies and communities they serve.

4 Members: County of Sonoma County of Mendocino Santa Rosa Rohnert Park Windsor Ukiah Healdsburg Cloverdale Sebastopol Cotati Sonoma County Water Agency

5 Safe Medicine Disposal Program THE PROBLEM Impacts from improper disposal and lack of disposal options: Environmental Public health Crime/law enforcement Additional burden on taxpayers, estimated cost of over $1.1 million since 2007!

6 Safe Medicine Disposal Program Local action to protect our groundwater and watershed: Sonoma County Water Agency program started a pilot program with 8 take-back locations. Santa Rosa started their program in Eventually, RRWA added sites to Ukiah, Cloverdale, Healdsburg, and Windsor. Other agencies added sites throughout watershed. Multi-Agency Work Group was developed in 2010 and continues to meet regularly.

7 Safe Medicine Disposal Program Education and outreach FREE drop off locations to residents in Sonoma and Mendocino Counties 90,000 lbs of medicines collected since 2007 Funded entirely by participating agencies

8 Safe Medicine Disposal Program Our patchwork approach isn t enough Almost a decade of work has brought us some success in the community o Some Hospitals, Grocery Stores, Hardware Stores, Local Pharmacies & Community Centers

9 Safe Medicine Disposal Program Lack of true regulatory control hampers uso CA Board of Pharmacy disincentivized take-back program participation o CVS and Longs Drugs cited safety concerns o Costco, Safeway, Walgreens, Rite-Aid, & others dropped out o Law enforcement offices reported that people were not going to police stations o DEA & CA Board of Pharmacy take-back program regulations have changed o Residents getting frustrated Fewer bin sites o Original need for program is more important than ever

10 Medicine Received per Year (lbs) 90,642 Pounds Collected to Date! 20,000 18,000 16,000 14,000 12,000 10,000 8,000 6,000 4,000 2,

11 Safe Medicine Disposal Program To go forward, we need to re-evaluate the way we fund and execute these programs. Patchwork of local government funding is costly, inefficient, and inequitable. Producers of medicines are not in the picture. Clearest path to success; evaluate Safe Medicine Disposal legislation, similar to other counties throughout California.

12 Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) Producers are required to design, manage, and finance programs for end-of-life management of their products and packaging as a condition of sale. In Canada, a nationwide EPR law has been successfully in place for twenty years, and added less than one cent per prescription. In the USA, Alameda County adopted first safe medicine in 2012, despite ensuing lawsuit, the ordinance was upheld

13 Legislative Momentum Alameda County, Ca Ordinance adopted 6/24/12; County was sued; ordinance upheld in Court King County, Wa 6/20/13 City & County of San Francisco, Ca 3/26/15 San Luis Obispo County, CA 4/11/15 San Mateo County, Ca 4/28/15 Marin County, Ca 8/11/15 Los Angeles County, Ca 8/11/15 Santa Clara County, Ca Ordinance in progress Santa Barbara County, Ca Ordinance in progress

14 The Need Support of concept: To evaluate the feasibility of a Safe Medicine Disposal ordinance that addresses the long-term need for safe and convenient prescription drug disposal options for our communities.

15 City Staff Recommendation 15

16 Staff Recommendation Provide a recommendation to the City of Santa Rosa Council to issue a letter of conceptual support to the RRWA for the evaluation of the feasibility of a Safe Medicine Disposal Ordinance 16
