Hello to all in histoland.  Our safety officer inquired If  we had a
procedure for the disposal of our formalin bottles.  The only procedure
that I had was for the waste formalin.  We just throw the bottles in the
trash for disposal.  Does any one do anything special for this type of
disposal.  Your help in this matter will be greatly appreciated.
