EPA met with representatives of CVS and their outside counsel

CVS discussed their waste management operations.  They indicated that a patchwork of regulations across the country makes it challenging for national chains to comply. They stressed the importance of a simple regulatory program that is easy to train their employees on. They also indicated that the company receives approximately $1 billion/year in manufacturers' credit for pharmaceuticals via reverse distribution.
