State DoH inspector said that anything that touches ammunition, i.e. boxes and targets are considered "contaminated" and must be disposed of properly. Makes no sense. I think she got Covid and lead mixed up.

yeah
i forgot to mention, the city wants the skeet/trap clubs to pay for the study and the cleanup
and the same with hpd on the action bay side
HPD is saying, if we pay, then we get control of who uses the ranges, and guess what that means...

If that’s the case then C&C should tell HPD to shoot someplace else and FO but we know that will NEVER happen… ::)
As for trap & skeet goes they don’t have the money to do what the city wants them to do. That’s why I say they are through unless a big money investor comes in which I doubt will happen….I personally think that they need a private trap and skeet range here and tell the city and HPD to shove it but once again figure the odds….. Fortunately there’s Schofield. That’s where I’ve been going and will never go back to KHSC…..

Beginning to think C&C means Cheech and Chong.

Well actually, I've always been thinking this.  Ever since Cheech and Chong came to be. 

I saw the similarities...... ;D

NEW RULE:
Do not dispose of empty ammunition boxes, cartridge holders, cases, targets in the trash can at KHSC. The wonderful minds at DoH deemed them some sort of special waste that needs to be disposed of properly.

I saw that this afternoon. Thought it was weird. I didn’t see an alternate trash can around.

Only new to KHSC.  Apparently this has been a thing for quite some time.

The big question is whether or not there are disposal sites capable and willing to accept that "special waste?"

There's a lot of liability for the disposal companies if customers don't follow procedures.  Could result in some huge EPA fines plus the cost of clean up.

The sign in question.  I've never seen this done at any other range.

Also the new pistol range look.  More ventilation.  Less noise.

Basically take your own trash home with you and throw it into your own bin.

Their rubbish cans are only for........gee I dunno.  Cannot eat or drink on the firing line.  So must be for when you eat and drink behind the firing line.

Those rubbish cans will take years to fill up.

From what I understand, the DoH needs to have some kind of evidence that said items are contaminated to a certain degree. i.e. lab test results etc. From what I saw, an inspector came out, looked around and told the ROs what they needed to do.
In another related topic, dog parks have trash cans contaminated withe animal feces. Isn't that a concern as well? Lead fishing weights are discarded frequently in the ocean etc...
This is ridiculous.

Yeah, so we take it home and dispose of it in the C&C trash and that makes it safe. Might make sense, though - no one can claim that KHSC is directly "polluting" the land fill. More CYA I think.

Yep.  From KHSC all the way up to Lahaina.  And everything in-between.

Silhouette won't open for a long time.  If ever.  Not sure on its status for range fixes.
