Drug take-back collection<br />
at fire department Apr. 27<br />
Area residents are invited<br />
<strong>to</strong> turn in their unused or<br />
expired medications at a<br />
drug “take-back” day on<br />
Saturday, April 27.<br />
The Springfield Township<br />
Fire Department will<br />
assist the Drug Enforcement<br />
Administration with<br />
the collection.<br />
Locally, it will be held<br />
at Fire Station No. 3, 7145<br />
Garden Road, from 10 a.m.<br />
<strong>to</strong> 2 p.m.<br />
The service is free and<br />
anonymous, and no questions<br />
will be asked.<br />
Local residents are<br />
encouraged <strong>to</strong> empty their<br />
medicine cabinets, bedside<br />
tables and kitchen drawers<br />
of unwanted, unused and<br />
expired prescription drugs.<br />
Last fall, the DEA’s<br />
state and local law enforcement<br />
partners, working at<br />
more than 5,263 locations,<br />
collected 488,395 pounds<br />
(244 <strong>to</strong>ns) of medications<br />
from the public.<br />
In the five years of Take<br />
Back events, they have collected<br />
more than 2 million<br />
pounds–1,018 <strong>to</strong>ns– of<br />
pills.<br />
The nationwide prescription<br />
drug take-back<br />
initiative seeks <strong>to</strong> prevent<br />
increased pill abuse and<br />
theft by collecting potentially<br />
dangerous expired,<br />
unused and unwanted prescription<br />
drugs for destruction<br />
at sites nationwide.<br />
Many Americans do not<br />
know how <strong>to</strong> properly dispose<br />
of their unused medicine,<br />
often flushing them<br />
down the <strong>to</strong>ilet or throwing<br />
them away–both potential<br />
safety and health hazards.<br />
According <strong>to</strong> the 2011<br />
Substance Abuse and Mental<br />
Health Services Administration’s<br />
National Survey<br />
on Drug Use and Health,<br />
more than six million<br />
Americans abuse prescription<br />
drugs.<br />
That same study<br />
revealed more than 70 percent<br />
of people abusing prescription<br />
pain relievers got<br />
them through friends or relatives,<br />
a statistic that<br />
includes raiding the family<br />
medicine cabinet.<br />
The National Prescription<br />
Drug Take-Back Day<br />
aims <strong>to</strong> provide a safe, convenient,<br />
and responsible<br />
means of disposal, while<br />
also educating the general<br />
public about the potential<br />
for abuse of these medications.<br />
Work <strong>to</strong> begin on old Route 24<br />
The Ohio Department of<br />
Transportation (ODOT) District<br />
Two will begin work on<br />
South River Road, the old<br />
Anthony Wayne Trail, on<br />
Monday, April 15.<br />
Through April, South<br />
River Road from the Henry<br />
Lucas County line road <strong>to</strong><br />
Providence-Neapolis-Swan<strong>to</strong>n<br />
Road will be closed for<br />
culvert replacement.<br />
Mo<strong>to</strong>rists will be<br />
de<strong>to</strong>ured using State Route<br />
295, U.S. Route 24 and<br />
State Route 109.<br />
Effective April 22<br />
through August, intermittent<br />
lane restrictions should be<br />
expected on South River<br />
Road from Henry/Lucas<br />
County line road <strong>to</strong> Dutch<br />
Road for resurfacing. Traffic<br />
will be maintained by flaggers.<br />
Additional closures for<br />
culvert repair will be<br />
