Allegany County is sponsoring a household hazardous waste collection on Saturday, October 7th at the Fairgrounds.  The county is offering free disposal of common chemicals that tend to collect in household garages and basements that cannot be easily put in the trash or recycling.  Free disposal of auto, garden, household, exterior and hobby-type chemicals and batteries will be received between 9am and 2pm.  Latex Paint can be recycled for $3 each in the original container.  This collection will not be accepting tires, ammunition, electronics, explosives, medicine or medical waste.
