Controlled substances are used in various research activities throughout The University of Iowa. The disposal of controlled substances is the final action necessary to ensure proper management of controlled substances. EHS has been approved by the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) to dispose of controlled substances through the application of an approved procedure. Licensed researchers who want to dispose of controlled substances that are mixed with hazardous chemical waste must consult with EHS to ensure compliance with hazardous waste regulations.
