EPA met with representatives and members of Environmental Technology Council (ETC). 

ETC discussed EPA's Universal Waste proposal saying that pharmaceuticals are not like other universal wastes.  That is, because the pharmaceuticals have street value, they need more security than other universal wastes.

ETC also mentioned that LDR treatment standards are not uniform for hazardous waste pharmaceuticals. And they indicated that only 6 or 7 hazardous waste incinerators can take DEA controlled substances.
