City officials say the red bags aren't arriving anymore from Regional Health Rapid City Hospital to the Iowa city's landfill, according to an article on the Rapid City Journal website.
Six weeks ago, after a visit from state health investigators reports that Regional Health was sending unregulated medical waste to the local dump, a senior Regional official announced that environmental services contractors at the hospital had begun sorting waste at a third site, the article said.
Regional would not identify the location, but said in a statement that along with other measures, "additional sorting has contributed to improved handling of waste."
A city spokesperson confirmed it has "not received any waste loads from Rapid City Regional Hospital for approximately the past month."
