Bismarck (CSi) Ag Commissioner Doug Goehring has announced the dates and locations for the 2017 Project Safe Send collections in July and August.
The North Dakota Department of Agriculture, says the collection dates allow farmers, ranchers, pesticide dealers and applicators, government agencies and homeowners to dispose of any unusable pesticides.
The program accepts old, unusable or banned pesticides including herbicides, insecticides, rodenticides and fungicides. These chemicals are then shipped out of state for incineration.
Goehring says, “Check your storage areas for any unusable pesticides and safely set them aside for Project Safe Send. If the containers are deteriorating or leaking, pack them in larger containers with absorbent materials. Free heavy-duty plastic bags are available from the North Dakota Department of Agriculture if needed.”
Those with more than 1,000 pounds of pesticides should pre-register one week prior to delivery. No other pre-registration is required. A maximum of 20,000 pounds of pesticides per participant will be accepted. Pesticide rinse water and empty containers are no longer accepted.
Area collections will run from 8 AM to Noon July 26
1524 Eighth Ave. SW – Valley City
