Waste Disposal

• Never pour anything down the drain unless you are
  told to do so.

Reasons for proper waste disposal

• Hazardous chemicals down the drain can lead to
  pollution of ground water, lakes, rivers, etc.
• Plants and animals will die if they are exposed
  to hazardous chemical waste.
• Serious health problems will become present in
  people if hazardous waste finds its way into
  drinking water.
