First time post.

OK, I have watched and read Steve's videos and am absolutely impressed and hooked. I was bitten by the gold bug 15 years ago with regards to prospecting in streams and have amased about 1 oz so far, total weight.

My question is, once the acids are used and the precious metals recovered what is done with regards to proper disposal of the acids and other chemicals. I hate to use the initials as I am sure it is probably taboo, but I am sure the EPA would frown on just dumping this stuff down the drain or in a seapage pit in the back yard.
 
If you don't generate much waste, then you can take it to the local municiple hazmat collection facillity for proper disposal.
