Medication disposal event set for Saturday

Residents can safely dispose of medication on Saturday at a free disposal event in Kennesaw.

The largest source of pharmaceutical byproducts in water comes from the improper disposal of medication flushed down drains. County staff and law enforcement personnel will be available to collect the medicines and dispose of them according to federal laws.

The Disposal Day runs from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Precinct One, Superstation Eight, 2380 Cobb Parkway NW in Kennesaw
