There is a black tank labeled "General BioDiesel" behind Safeway, Sammamish Highlands, located next to Allied Waste Dumpsters on the back side of Safeway and behind MailPost.  The tank will be kept here through January 4. If this tank receives a fair amount of disposal throughout the holidays we may keep it in Sammamish going forward in 2011.

Please spread the word so that our citizens use it.
