[Histonet] dumping formalin

[Molinari, Betsy]

We collect ours and the Hazardous Waste Dept of the hospital collects
it. Now what they do with it I have no idea. We collect all our waste,
fixatives, stains etc. I know of at least 2 facilities in Houston that
pour theirs down the drain. 

I am from Boston I was so  pleased to read the steps they have taken.
They city spent a lot of money cleaning up the harbor.
