The Pittcon 2010 Registration Chairman Susan Zawacky commented, "In 2009, we implemented several new "green" procedures throughout the event. In an effort to increase these green initiatives, this is the first year that registration badges will not be mailed, but will be available on site for pick up in the Registration Booth in the OCCC, West Building." She added, "Our registration company, ITN International, will also be providing recycling bins where conferees can deposit their badges at the end of the conference."
