I would not <br />require a label on the top of the either container, since it is a sharps container. <br />Many of the staff I have interviewed at facilities don't know the destination of the waste. They say, <br />thought all waste was incinerated, so an "incineration Only" label won't help many that haven't been <br />trained properly on segregation. I have attached a cheat sheet we give to the generators. We are <br />heavy on the education portion. <br />Alison <br />From: Newton, Ingrid [mailto:INewton@STERICYCLE.co] <br />Sent: Thursday, May 26, 2011 11:04 AM <br />To: Dabney, Alison (CDPH-DDWEM) <br />Subject: <br />Good Morning Alison, <br />The Stericycle's sharps containers which go through the Biosystems process are labeled; however, it impedes <br />the safety of our operations to label the lid of the sharps containers since the robotic arm has to remove the lid <br />in order to discharge the sharps into the bin. I realize that we have spoken about this before, but wanted to get <br />something formal from the department in reference to the labeling of sharps containers which are associated <br />with our Biosystems process. <br />6/8/2011 <br />
