“The new PaintCare program helps our com munity reduce waste, increase recycling, and minimize governmental costs to handle and dis pose of leftover paint,” said Chautauqua County Executive PJ Wendel. “We applaud the local bu sinesses that have joined with PaintCare to make it easy for residents and bu sinesses to recycle paint all year long.” New York’s paint re cycling program comes in the wake of a paint stewardship law that was passed by the State Legis lature in 2019. The law ensures that everyone who produces, sells, and uses paint works together to minimize, reuse, and recycle unwanted paint.
A recipe for safer home cooking
• Keep a watch on foods, as walking away from something cooking on the stove or going out side while the oven is on is risky. Do not leave cooking food unat tended for an extended period of time. It only takes a minute for something to catch on fire.
• Clean cooking surfaces to prevent the buildup of grease, which can catch fire. • Turn pan and pot handles inward on stoves or counters to prevent food spills. • Always defrost foods in the microwave or overnight in the refrigerator to reduce the chances that pathogens may develop.
• Prepare raw meats, poultry and seafood away from fresh produce to avoid cross-contami nation. Utilize separate cutting boards and knives, and use warm, soapy water to wash away bacteria from surfaces. • Wash hands before and after handling ingredients. • Keep pets and children out of the kitchen or away from any inuse appliances, including outdoor grills.•Invest in a food thermometer to ensure that food is properly cooked to the right temperature to reduce risk of foodborne illnesses. Kitchens are popular gathering spaces, and various measures can make home cooking more safe.

• Keep flammable items away from open flames. Wear short or close-fitting sleeves when cooking, as loose clothing can catch fire. Make sure curtains, pot holders and towels are away from hot surfaces. • Remember that hot items re main hot for some time. Use oven mitts or pot holders when hand ling hot cookware. • Sharpen knives, as sharp kni ves cut more easily, thus reducing risk for injuries.
According to the National Electro nic Injury Surveillance System, a database of emergency room vi sits and the injuries that preceded them, finger lacerations and fin ger avulsions from knives, upper torso burns and lacerations from drinking glasses and bottles/jars are the most common injuries. Hand burns from cookware and ovens also cause a high number of injuries.Cutsand burns may cause ins tantly recognizable injuries, but bacteria can be even more harm ful, even if it’s not as noticeable. According to the food and beve rage news site FoodBeast, the ave rage cutting board is home to 200 percent more fecal bacteria than the average toilet seat! With so many potential threats lurking, cooks must be especially vigilant when preparing meals at home. These strategies can make cooking in the kitchen more safe.

The New York State Department of Environ mental Conservation (DEC) today reminded all new hunters and trappers planning to go afield this season that they must first complete a manda tory hunter, bowhunter, or trapper education course before obtaining the appropriate sport ing license or hunting privilege. In-person, in structor-led hunter edu cation courses are being offered throughout New York during September and October. Bowhunter education, trapper ed ucation, and waterfowl hunter education courses are also available, and all in-person courses are free and offer hands-on expe rience.“DEC’s Hunter Educa tion Program has a long and proud tradition of training new hunters and trappers annually, creat ing safe hunting opportu nities for more than half a million New York sports men and sportswomen,” said Commissioner Seg gos. “Since 1949, DEC works closely with certi fied volunteer instructors to teach new outdoor en thusiasts how to be safe, responsible, and ethical hunters and trappers. As a result, hunting con tinues to be a safe and enjoyable sport and we thank the dedicated vol unteer instructors who provide their expertise and support to deliver this important program. I encourage all prospec tive hunters and trappers to sign up for one of the dozens of courses offered across New York State.” With hunting licenses now on sale, first-time hunters and trappers are encouraged to sign up for certification courses soon to reserve a spot, as these courses can fill quickly. Each year, thousands of New Yorkers take DEC’s hunter and trapper edu cation courses. DEC’s on line registration system makes it easy to view a list of all available courses. To locate a hunter or trapper education course, visit DEC’s website or contact a local DEC office for assis tance.All in-person courses require students to re view course materials and complete homework prior to attending the class room and field session. The homework portion of the course introduces the subject and enhances understanding of the course material. Proof of the completed home work is required to attend the in-person part of the course. Students should register for the course well in advance of the course date to allow time to complete the home work requirement, which takes approximately three hours. All in-per son courses will require successful completion of an in-person field day to earn certification for the course.Thehomework materi als can be found on DEC’s website. Students may also follow the guidelines listed in the course an nouncement when reg istering for a course. For those with restricted ac cess to the internet, course manuals, and homework sheets are always avail able from DEC wildlife offices and Hunter Educa tion Program instructors. Education Courses Pro duce Hunter Safety Re sultsNew York’s hunter edu cation courses are highly effective in fostering safe hunters. Approximately 500,000 licensed hunt ers spend an estimated 10 to 15 million days afield each year. Reports on the number of hunting-re lated shooting incidents indicate that the 2021 hunting seasons in New York were the safest ever, with the lowest num ber of hunting-related shooting incidents since record-keeping began. DEC Environmental Con servation Police Officers investigated nine hunt ing-related shooting inci dents in 2021, including one fatality, the lowest number on record since DEC began
