1. I dropped my ring into the toilet as it was flushing, Would you be able to find it for me?

It would be nearly impossible for the ring to be found at the treatment plant. It is most likely lost forever in a maze of pipes leading from your home to the plant. Even if the ring (or any item) made it to the plant, the processes of initial screening would still make it nearly impossible to find.

2. I have some unused prescription drugs. Is it acceptable to flush them down the toilet?

It is our recommendation that unused prescription drugs be saved for disposal at the City's annual Toxic Trash Roundup.
