PLEASE BRING ALL
DISCARDED NEEDLES TO THE BCEP OFFICE IN A HARD PLASTIC CONTAINER -
discarded needles do not belong in the mixed paper, the plastic OR
any of the recycle bins. This is very dangerous for the staff
to discover used needles “hidden” in the recyclables. ALSO,
soiled personal hygiene products should be disposed of in the trash.
Thank you for your cooperation. Questions gladly answered by any
staff member or call 435-6237.
