[Histonet] proper disposal of specimen transpot biohazard bags

From:"Ron Martin"

Fellow techs,
What is the proper disposal means for the specimen transport biohazard bags? The bags we use say "stat" and "biohazard" on them. I always thought that they were to be discarded in a larger biohazard bag with the other contaminated material. My manager says that they are to be discarded in the regular trash unless formalin or other fluid leaks in them. What is everyone else doing?
Thanks,
Ron Martin
