CALENDAR Recycling compact flu- orescent lights (CFLs) has a bright future in Tehama County thanks to you and seven local retailers that are collecting them at no charge: Corning Disposal & Recycling, GreenWaste of Tehama, Los Molinos Ace Hardware, Home De- pot, McCoy Hardware & Farm Supply, Hatfields Ace Hardware, and the Tehama County/Red Bluff Landfill. It important to recycle CFLs and any fluorescent tubes because they contain small amounts of mercury that allow the light to be en- ergy efficient. If fluorescent lights are broken, the mer- cury sealed within the glass tubing can escape. These small amounts can accu- mulate in the atmosphere. Mercury threatens public health, and contaminates drinking water and soil. Due to this toxicity, the state of California has banned fluorescent lights from disposal in the trash. When the fluorescent lights are placed in the trash, they inadvertently get crushed and broken by heavy equip- ment compacting the waste, exposing waste workers and the environment to mercury. By recycling them at their end-of-life you can save energy, help protect public health, and properly manage a household haz- ardous waste. Unfortunately, only two percent of CFLs are recy- cled from households in the United States. Fluorescent lights also come in the tube form. You commonly find fluorescent tubes being used for light- ing in garages, kitchens and in businesses. If you have 4- or 8-foot long flu- orescent tubes, properly re- cycle up to 20 at a time at five locations in the county: Tehama County/Red Bluff Landfill, Los Molinos Hard- ware, Hatfields Ace Hard- ware, McCoy Hardware and Farm Supply and at the Gre- enWaste of Tehama office. Businesses must call 528- 1103 first to make an ap- pointment. While fluorescent lights have energy saving bene- fits, throwing them in the trash can pose problems. Fluorescent bulbs are also expensive to process when disposed of improperly. Pre- cautionary measures, for the safety of the waste in- dustry worker, need to be taken when found in trash. This creates additional costs, which are eventu- ally paid for by the public through their landfill fees and garbage rates. An even newer technol- ogy that saves more energy, lasts longer and has no mer- cury are Light Emitting Di- odes, or LEDs. The life of a high-power white LED is projected to be 35,000 hours, compared to 750 hours for an incandescent bulb, and 8,000 hours for a compact fluorescent. An additional benefit is LEDs generate almost no heat or UV rays, which can reduce air conditioning costs and protect fabrics from fading. For more information, call the Tehama County Sanitary Landfill Agency at 530 528-1103 or visit www. tehamacountylandfill.com.

WILLOWS Water at the Letts Lake Campground on the Grindstone Ranger Dis- trict on the Mendocino Na- tional Forest is scheduled to be shut off by Sunday night as part of California State water curtailment. Campers and recre- ational users visiting Letts Lake should plan on bring- ing plenty of drinking wa- ter with them. Even with the ongoing drought and recent curtail- ment, there is still water in Letts Lake. The roughly 35- acre mountain lake is still open for non-motorized boating. "Letts Lake is one of our most popular recreation sites during the summer and we understand this is an inconvenience to our vis- itors," said Grindstone Dis- trict Ranger Eduardo Olm- edo. "We appreciate their un- derstanding as we com- ply with state water regu- lations and work to do our part conserving valuable water resources in the up- per watershed during this drought." The State Water Re- sources Control Board has provided notice of curtail- ment to the Forest. Letts Lake is the first recreation site impacted by the direc- tion. At this time, there is not an estimated date for drinking water access to be restored. The curtailment is part of water conservation measures due to ongoing drought and dry conditions across the state. The Mendocino Na- tional Forest has been im- pacted by the drought with extremely dry fuel condi- tions and higher fire dan- ger. The Forest is currently under fire restrictions and asking visitors to be careful with fire or anything that can throw a spark and ig- nite a wildfire. For more information, please contact the Men- docino National Forest at 530-934-3316 or visit www. fs.usda.gov/mendocino.

AssociatedPress LOS ANGELES Ten years ago, Shirley Worthing- ton rushed Tigger to the vet when the dog's mouth started bleeding. When she was told he had cancer, she knew to blame her heavy smoking, an addiction she couldn't kick until after her pet died. Secondhand smoke can cause lung and nasal can- cer in dogs, malignant lymphoma in cats and al- lergy and respiratory prob- lems in both animals, ac- cording to studies done at Tufts University's School of Veterinary Medicine in Massachusetts, Colorado State University and other schools. The number of pets that die each year from tobacco exposure isn't available, but vets know from lab tests and office visits that inhaling smoke causes al- lergic reactions, inflamma- tion and nasal and pulmo- nary cancers in pets, said Dr. Kerri Marshall, the chief veterinary officer for Trupanion pet insurance. Despite Worthington's certainty about the cause of her dog's death, more research needs to be done before veterinarians can definitively say whether a dog's cancer was caused by secondhand smoke or something else, said Dr. Liz Rozanski, whose re- search at Tufts College focuses on respiratory function in small ani- mals. Worthington, 52, of Brooklyn, New York, said she was a teenager when she started smoking and she had always smoked around Tigger, who was 8 when he died in 2004. A year later, Worthing- ton, her mom and sister all quit in honor of the bi- chon frise. Then, in 2007, Worthing- ton's mom died while suf- fering from cancer. "Cigarettes took my mother," she said. "And they took my dog." Pets aren't mentioned in this year's surgeon gen- eral's report, but in 2006, it said secondhand smoke puts animals at risk. The Legacy Foundation, the nation's largest nonprofit public health charity, en- couraged smokers to quit for the sake of their pets, and the American Society for the Prevention of Cru- elty to Animals urged making homes with pets smoke-free. It's even more impor- tant to safeguard cats, which are more suscep- tible to tobacco smoke than dogs.
