I. Executive Summary

MED-Project LLC (“MED-Project”) operates a Product Stewardship Plan for Sharps from Households (“Plan”) in the County of Alameda (“Jurisdiction”) under the Alameda County Safe Consumer-Generated Sharps Disposal Ordinance No. 2015-53, Alameda Municipal Code Chapters 6.54.010 – 6.54.180 (“Ordinance”). This 2020 County of Alameda Annual Sharps Report (“Report”) describes the activities of MED-Project frp, January 1, 2020, to December 31, 2020 (“Reporting Period”) in compliance with Ordinance Section 6.54.120. All capitalized terminology not defined in this annual report is derived from the approved Plan dated January 31, 2018, as amended on March 26, 2018.

During the Reporting Period, MED-Project operated its Product Stewardship Program (“Program”) and collected Sharps in accordance with the Plan, as approved by the Alameda County Department of Environmental Health (“Department”) on March 26, 2018. On February 29, 2020, MED-Project requested the use of an additional disposal facility. On April 16, 2020, the Department approved the request. MED- Project sent the Jurisdiction an initial COVID-19 response notification on March 17, 2020, and a second notification with additional information on March 26, 2020. On April 15, 2020, MED-Project provided a third COVID-19 response notification, including then-current information on restricted access to sites. On July 16, 2020 MED-Project provided a fourth COVID-19 response notification, including then-current information on restricted access to sites. On November 13, 2020, MED-Project submitted a fifth COVID- 19 response notification, which indicated that only six sites in the Jurisdiction remained restricted. See Table 2; Sharps Kiosk Collection Data for all sites that were restricted during the Reporting Period. During 2020, MED-Project gave priority to establishing Sharps Kiosk Drop-Off Sites throughout Alameda County, conducting a Take-Back Event in alignment with approved Plan goals, and performing outreach to eligible , community organizations, local government agencies, health associations, and Law Enforcement Agencies (“LEAs”) throughout Alameda County. As a result of these efforts, MED- Project’s Program collected and disposed of “Sharps” (as defined in Plan Section V) from 38 Sharps Kiosk Drop-Off Sites, four Household Hazardous Waste Facilities, residential Mail-Back Services, and one Take- Back Event in 2020. Sharps kiosks were installed in pharmacies and LEAs that met all local, state, and federal requirements and that executed agreements with MED-Project. In addition, outreach and educational materials were distributed upon request and to all newly activated Sharps Kiosk Drop-Off Sites, including signage and/or brochures. MED-Project continues to communicate with Sharps Kiosk Drop-Off Site Hosts participating in the Program to coordinate and monitor implementation as well as ensure materials for Residents are available at all participating Sharps Kiosk Drop-Off Sites. As outlined in the approved Plan, the ultimate goal of the Program is to provide Alameda County Residents with convenient, safe, and accessible methods to dispose of Sharps. MED-Project anticipates a steady increase in Sharps Kiosk Drop-Off Sites throughout 2021 as a result of outreach, educational, and promotional Program activities, especially if there is an increase in retail chain participation. The following Sections of the Report address the specific reporting requirements in Ordinance Section 6.54.120. Each section of the Report restates the corresponding Ordinance requirement and provides the required information.

Additionally, of those Alameda County Residents surveyed, 19% reported having used Kiosk Drop-Off Site locations, Mail-Back Services, or take-back event disposal methods to dispose of Sharps in the Past year. Kiosk Drop-Off Site locations were used by 83% of this group. Of the Alameda County Residents who have used disposal programs, 64% believe that the sharps disposal program is easy to use and 61% of the same group of Residents believe locations are easy to locate.

MED-Project will continue to evaluate media and public outreach as well as collect feedback by surveys in order to identify and make adjustments and improvements to the Program. Additionally, MED-Project may revise and/or add communications materials based on changes to the Plan, as needed. XI. Program Goals

During the Reporting Period, Sharps kiosk implementation and collection continued and resulted in 38 active Sharps Kiosk Drop-Off Sites. MED-Project’s long-term goal is to have 55 Sharps Kiosk Drop-Off Sites within three years and continues to make progress towards this goal. Refer to Sections III and VI of this Report for specific collection information. Figure 1 shows a graphical representation of how MED- Project strove to meet service convenience and collection goals during the Reporting Period.
