[Histonet] Formalin down the sink

[Barbara Murray]

Greetings,
We have been using a solidifier for our formalin, putting it into  biohazard boxes for pickup by the  housekeeping dept. We were told by our Safety Officer that we can now pour it down the drain with lots of running water. 
For the ones of you who are using formalin, how are you disposing of it?
Thanks for your replies. Have a great day and weekend!
